Different behaviours should be in different functions.
Sorry for double posting, but in this way it seems I can't use instance method inside the classmethod. Probably it is the right behavior, but if I use this @classmethod style to simplify the __init__ method, now I should move code from instance method inside the classmethods. In this way I'm kinda mixing things. I mean, if to construct an object I have to use different methods, what can I do? Or am I missing something, as usual? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
