Indeed, in "Nutshell" Alex M. mentions your paper at the end of his high-level explanation of the MRO. In my infinite wisdom, I had chosen not to follow up by reading about the nitty-gritty details :-) As I mentioned in another post, it wasn't my lack of understanding of the MRO per se that tripped me up. I somehow managed to know that in Alex's example, an instance of the D class would have an MRO of essentially (D, C, B, A), and yet not realize that this was strangly similar to the output of the example. D'oh! Thanks, Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
