I also agree. Although the question may have appeared out of place, it wasn't totally. The poster asked the question very politely, apologizing in advance for what may be consider an off-topyc question. He also said he only knew python, and he probably wasn't able to explain the intended behaviour he wanted in C# without refering to Python. He is also very right when he says that those who were not interested in the question could have simply ignored it. In exchange, he got a couple of slighty rude replies and an ironic comment. What reaction do you expect from him? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
