Hm... well, if it makes you feel more comfortable (and I suppose it 
would be better design too), you can define a dummy method in base1:

 >>> class base1:
...     def baseFunc1(self):
...         self.derivedFunc()
...     def derivedFunc(self):
...         """Dummy method, override by children"""
...         pass

Yours,

Andrei
