No, slots are a memory optimization trick and should NOT be used as declarations. You can find a few posts of the Martellibot on the subject. I even wrote a recipe to tell people who want static declarations how to implement them without slots: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/252158 Michele Simionato -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
