PEP: 246 Title: Object Adaptation

Minor nit (or not?): You could provide a pointer to the Liskov substitution principle, for those reader that aren't too familiar with that term. Excellent idea, thanks.

Terminology point: I know that LiskovViolation is technically correct, but I'd really prefer it if exception names (which are sometimes all users get to see) were more informative for people w/o deep technical background. Would that be possible?
