Yes, I did. I couldn't turn it up in Google, either. I did find a long thread where you discuss the issue. Reading that, I found justifications for having a constant hash value, and having immutable attributes - but I've known about those for a long time.. Neither of these constitutes an immutable instance. Could I get you to recap the reason? thanks, <mike -- Mike Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
