I'd rather have the common case (of adapting a non-tuple) be the simpler form and the exception (adapting a tuple) require more verbiage. -- Benji York _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
