Well, you are right. I remember being fooled myself. 'super' does NOT return a superclass. Actually, there is no meaningful concept of superclass in a multiple inheritance world. Anyway, the MRO concept is documented here: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.3/mro/ (yes, it is not easy to find this link in python.org).
