as Diez shows, it's all about use cases. and as anyone who's used my libraries or read my code knows, I'm a big fan of minimalistic but highly composable object API:s and liberal use of short helper functions to wire them up to fit the task at hand. kitchen sink API design is a really bad idea, for more reasons than I can fit in this small editor window. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
