    Christian> I could not find documentation of the following change in
    Christian> python2.5. What is the reason for that?

Without looking through the change history for the module it's unclear to me
why that would have changed.  The thing that changed is that the get_dialect
call now returns a _csv.Dialect object instead of an instance of the
csv.excel class:

    % python2.4
    Python 2.4.1 (#3, Jul 28 2005, 22:08:40) 
    [GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1671)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import csv
    >>> d = csv.get_dialect("excel")
    >>> d
    <csv.excel instance at 0x3ae058>

    % python
    Python 2.6a0 (trunk:54264M, Mar 10 2007, 15:19:48) 
    [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import csv
    >>> d = csv.get_dialect("excel")
    >>> d
    <_csv.Dialect object at 0x137fac0>

Please submit a bug report on SourceForge.
