Isn't marshal constrained to work across platforms (for a given Python release), and pickle also constrainted to work across releases (for a given protocol)? I'm curious about how this still allows them to "take different paths" (yeah, I _could_ study the sources, but I'm lazy:-)... Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
