(If I could design a language from scratch, I might want to move docstrings to before the 'def' as well; I've come to appreciate this in Java code. Fredrik Lundh's PythonDoc also uses comments prefixing the method definition; he also uses @ so he should be happy with this syntax, as he seemed to be when I mentioned it to him at EuroPython.) It's not at all clear that Fredrik likes it, but he doesn't participate in Python development any more so we may never know :-(.

you can ask. I do read mail, eventually. ;-)
