Nonsense. It is a feature, not a bug. Some people might argue that it is a mistake, a minor feature which allegedly causes more difficulties than benefits. I do not hold with that idea. But either way, it is not a bug to be fixed, but a deliberate consequence of intended semantics. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
