I'd found this with google, but thank you for making sure I was aware of it. The author of the bag class said that he was planning to submit bags for inclusion in 2.5 - is there a particular reason why they didn't go in? I keep finding a need for bags. In the past, I've done this sort of thing with dictionaries, but it's much nicer to have a bag class, and of course it's better to have it in the standard library than to slurp it into this, that and the other project. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
