Things like days of the week really have a circular ordering, so it doesn't inherently make sense to ask whether one day of the week is less than or greater than another. Maybe there should be a circular_enum type, where order comparisons even among the *same* type are disallowed? Another thought -- should enum values have pred() and succ() methods, like in Pascal? If so, for a circular_enum these should wrap around. -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
