Of course you are entitled to have your own opinion and own coding style. You are also allowed to disregard the opinion of experienced Python developers, who really know what they are talking about. But please DO NOT teach new Python users wrong coding! I assume Benjamin will follow the right lead here. If you have a short memory then you should definitely use one way -- the correct way for all cases -- to call the parent's class init method. Otherwise your future self is going to hate your current self for introducing potential buggy code. Have fun ;) Christian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
