R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: No, I meant demense (I even looked up the spelling). The word is related to domain, but has a somewhat more precise shading of meaning :)
A lord's chief manor place, with that part of the lands belonging thereto which has not been granted out in tenancy; a house, and the land adjoining, kept for the proprietor's own use. [Written also {demain}.] --Wharton's Law Dict. In other words, Georg is lord of this particular manor, unless he assigns a piece to someone else...it seemed in keeping with the Python tradition of having a BDFL. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5341> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
