But I stumbled upon this little naming protocol
Protocol: if you have a suggestion for a name for this function, mail it to me. DON'T MAIL THE LIST. (If you mail it to the list, that name is disqualified.) Don't explain me why the name is good -- if it's good, I'll know, if it needs an explanation, it's not good.
which I thought was most excellent, and something that we might PEP:ify for future use, until I realized that it gave us the "worst name ever"...
/And/ the rule was self-admittedly broken by Guido not a few posts after that one. ;) -Barry
