we probably want to call it "module" or "namespace" or "api" or something like that. The method itself can be a Python @property which would cause it to behave like an attribute in any case, or if we want to keep it as a method call to make it clear that code is being executed, that's fine as well. But the spec would need to say in either case, "don't assign the module itself to the connection". _______________________________________________ DB-SIG maillist - DB-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/db-sig
