I am using a class to manage configuration settings in an application. This object should only existe once so that when the user changes a setting through a configuration dialog the change imminent in all locations where access to config settings are needed. I was using a factory function bevore, but since I am starting to use Python 2.4 and I remembered having read about a singleton-decorator I went to look deeper into the possibilities.
