Of the three solutions Steven presented, the latter two leave very strong coupling between the code in your separate files. This makes working with the files independently impractical. Stick with mixin classes and pay heed to the Law of Demeter if you want to de-couple them enough to work on independently. -- Neil Cerutti -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
