I chose 'ability' because to me it doesn't require that the class being inspected is active by itself. For example, it feels natural to me to speak of a class as "having the totally ordered ability". The problem I have with 'feature' is that it's already in widespread use without a formal meaning. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
