I don't generally use super() but I did see some advice about it in this article: https://fuhm.net/super-harmful/ >From the conclusion: "Never use positional arguments in __init__ or __new__. Always use keyword args, and always call them as keywords, and always pass all keywords on to super." Oscar -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
