Nah, doesn't work in my case. I'm trying to write a wrapper around xml.etree.ElemenTree and .Element to circumvent its idiotic namespace handling. For that I need inheritance since I want to override the find..() functions to return my derived MyElement classes. I think it could work but I somehow need to convert the root Element to a MyElement. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
