[SQLObject] New style classes and __init__ vs _init

[Edmund L. <el...@in...>]

In the SQLObject docs, Ian writes:

"With new-style classes, __init__ is called everytime the class is 
called. That means it's called when an object is just fetched from the 
cache"

This was a bit surprising to me, so I Googled to find discussion of 
this, but came up empty. Can anybody point me to a discussion of this?
