I'd prefer (and I don't remember what the issue about this was):

def messageLength(self) as objc.accessor: return "XIV" def saveSheetDidDismissreturnCodecontextInfo(self, sheet, returnCode, contextInfo) as objc.signature("v@:@i"): pass or def foo () as staticmethod: I'm also happy with the def staticmethod foo(): proposal, but the point about breaking etags seems reasonable to me. Maybe when the PEP captures the dscussion we can all read it and come to a consensus, because we'll all understand what's wrong with the non-pie proposals.

See http://www.python.org/moin/PythonDecorators for a current pros-and-cons tally on the syntaxes you referenced.
