#You can't do that. The "from module import *" mechanism explicitly
#defines names in the importing module's namespace, so if you use this
#technique to import two modules that define the same name you will
#inevitably find that the second import overwrites the duplicate name
#imported by the first import.
#
#Note also that the ".py" should not be included in the import statement
#- the interpreter finds the appropriate code from the module name, so
#you should anyway be doing something like
#
#   from import2 import *
#   from import2 import *
#
#It would be much better, though, to write:
#
#   import import1
#   import import2
#
#Then you can refer to import1.BaseClass and import2.baseClass without
#getting any naming conflicts. In general the "from module import *"
form
#should only be used under specific conditions, which we needn't discuss
#here now.
