"implemented by subclass"

[phil hunt]

Consider the following python code:


class Log:
   def write(self, text): 
      """(implemented by subclass)"""  


Is this the most pythonic way to do it? If not, what would be
better? How about rasing a ShouldBeImplementedBySublass exception?

How do other people do it?
