Hi!

I've just discovered, that Acquisition does not work with __getattr__, right?

(I assume that this is so because something like getattr(mybase,attr) is called during the acquisition process to prevent infinite recursion.)

I believe that is correct.

Anyway to get around that? (To basically get a wrapped self from somewhere?)

You might want to look at PortableHole for inspiration. It does get around getattr problems with acquisition: http://www.zope.org/Members/TheJester/PortableHole Cheers, Leo -- Ideas don't stay in some minds very long because they don't like solitary confinement.
