Great!  I'll wait for it, then.

Guido wrote up a description that's at
http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.python.org/pub/www.python.org/2.2/descrintro.html
.  I do plan to write a section on it, now that it seems closer to
inevitable, but I don't think it affects beginner or
intermediate-level programmers much.  Mostly the changes will affect
wizards who want to write ExtensionClass-like things.

And thanks!
