If you're defining your own warning class, you might consider using FutureWarning instead of UserWarning. We had a discussion about this issue for numpy recently: http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-May/062460.html What we eventually ended up with: http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-May/062468.html -n ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
