Why don't you invoke the consenting adults now? People have come here arguing for all kind of extra features, which would somehow defend against messing with certain variable or attributes the author wants protected. The general respons has always been, that we are consenting adults here. Static variables, are just a feature to protect what is essentially a global variable against messing from somewhere else. So why is this feature worthy of discussion and others are not? -- Antoon. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
