IOW, I think the docs ought to continue using wording like this for property: "Return a property attribute for new-style classes (classes that derive from object)."
I'd love it if we could come up with a different term for these beasts that "new style classes". Some day they won't be new any more, and may in fact be the only kind of classes in Python. Not that I have any good idea for what they should be called... -Barry
