New submission from Lucian Ursu <lucian_u...@yahoo.com>: I suggest that name mangling should not be recommended as a way of having private attributes. Instead, one underscore should be suggested as a signal that the attribute is private. This suggestion comes after discussing with some of the helpers from #python. Basically, they said that name mangling should never be used, so it would be appropriate to remove this recommendation from the tutorial.
