All metaclasses are subclasses of type, so all classes are instances of type.
I think that's about the most general definition you can find. Almost everything else that you might think of as being part of the classness of a class can be overridden. Another definition might be that it's something that is potentially the result of type(x) for some x. I think that's equivalent, because at the C level type(x) returns the value of x->ob_type, which always points to an instance of type or a subclass thereof. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
