ISTM the space saving of value of __slots__ isn't typically needed in the context of variable length built-in types. Guido has long regarded __slots__ as a confusing hack. That should warn us away for extending its functionality. Unless there are some compelling use cases, a simple and clean patch, and a clear one sentence explanation for users, I recommend this feature request be closed. Michael, do you still want this? ---------- nosy: +rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1173475> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
