Aahz is probably referring to the fact that Python 2.3 has changed the
MRO since the 2.2 one was a bad idea. See
http://www.python.org/2.3/mro.html
for more. A part for this, Aahz is right in pointing out that you
cannot get
the attention of a lot of intelligent knowledgable people on c.l.py
because
of your postings habits. Actually this is the reason why I have
downloaded Prothon yet. It is kinda of a pity, since maybe the idea is
worth, but it is difficult to give credit to people liking tabs and
top posting. Those are not
stupid things IMNSHO.
