Dear pythonista, what is a "slot" in python? I stumbled over it in several meta-reflection discussions and hard-core developer talk, but found no mention of it in the language reference.
Google coughs up more interesting banter about it, but no specifics. Is it a feature that was once planned (for 2.2 or so) and later abandoned? I find no *new* talk about it. Thanks for your attention Tin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
