Please read the first sentence of the docs for the built-in function getattr() here: http://docs.python.org/library/functions.html?highlight=getattr#getattr Fix the word 'attributed' to 'attribute', because the former is a typo. A side question. When you document an object's API in the docstring, you write it like this: getattr(object, name[, default]) -> value Don't you find it nicer if that would look like this: getattr(object, name, [default]) -> value Note the cosmetic fix between the arguments 'name' and 'default'. Do you find my fix acceptable? If yes, please fix docstrings in Python that document the object's API from the '...name[, default]...' format to '...name, [default]...' format.
Boštjan, it is fixed. The change will reflect when the docs get served from the updated version. Also, Georg will take care of merging it to other branches.
I don't waste my time by merging every little typo fix to the maintenance branches immediately; I rather merge them all at once every now and then. You will certainly understand that nobody is harmed by a stray "d", even if it has a pointy tip.
