My understanding (not that my record in reading Matz 2.0 intention is anything I should be bragging about - not that I mind, since I am feeling like a kid in a candy store:-) was that Rite's class variables will behave like today's class instance variables without the need of ``class attribute accessors''. Personally I am actually in favor of getting ride of class variables altogether and only use class attributes accessors + class instance variables. /Christoph
