[Dave Fugate]

Thanks!  This is a good bug and I'm little surprised we didn't have a test for it.

Thanks Dave - appreciate the hard work.

I have been using the module querypy.py (Attached) with previous releases.

Think I have found an issue in the latest release.

----
def __make_tag__(name, **kwargs):
  class tmp: pass
  tmp_dict = dict(Tag.__dict__)  # This is 232 the problem line.
  tmp.__name__ = name
---

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File ldservergui.py, line 8, in Initialize

  File , line 0, in _stub_##2

  File c:\Code\MN2\moodnews.py, line 9, in Initialize

  File , line 0, in _stub_##2

  File c:\Code\MN2\querypy.py, line 241, in Initialize

  File querypy, line unknown, in __make_tag__

  File c:\Code\MN2\querypy.py, line 232, in __make_tag__

NotImplementedError: The method or operation is not implemented.
