I finally got back to looking at this today. As it turns out, un- overriding __new__ in the child class is more complicated than I first expected, and isn't worth the extra effort. So, I ended up using a constructor class method as you suggested. Thanks again! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
