OOP - iterable class: how to delete one of its objects ?

Dennis,

:-) Thats the problem: __del__ only gets called when the object is 
destroyed - which will never happen when the "instances" list still contains 
a reference to it.

Its a catch-22 situation: __del__ needs to be executed to remove the 
reference from the "instances" list, but I need to remove the reference from 
that list before __del__ will be called ...
