Nice :-) About as heavyweight as a classmethod, though, so it doesn't buy me much over that (beyond avoiding a set of parens, which isn't a big deal). Either classmethod or classproperty gives me the key benefit I'm after, which is avoiding the per-instance overhead, though. TBH, this is a huge case of premature optimisation, though, so it's probably little more than an academic or style question. :-) Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
