While the idea is fine, I just know that the point is going to be brought up that the addition should not be done until experience with the new hierarchy is had. I will add a comment that tuples can be added to the module after enough experience is had, but I am not going to try pushing for this right now. Of course I could be surprised and everyone could support the idea. =) -Brett _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
