Hello, thank you for the rare nice words in this thread!

I got a bit hit by surprise by the submission of this article to HN (it’s like two weeks old now) so it caught me a bit off guard close before a new release and there’s some inconsistency between the GitHub README and the docs on RTD.

The version that’s on PyPI now <https://pypi.org/project/attrs/> has it as the first sentence after the first code sample anyone ever sees (and people still complained because the just don’t read :() and the new version <https://attrs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/> has a whole section around the example explaining attrs’ scope and ib/s: <https://attrs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html> (the new version also adds and promotes aliases that make more sense but that’s beyond the point).

I feel like I’ve really done my due here and I’ll have to accept that I can’t make everyone happy. :|
