Is there a new-style version of `UserDict` for Python2.6?

Some classes in our code base inherited from UserDict to act like a dict object.

I was trying to apply a metaclass for them but I couldn't because they are old-style classes.

So, is there a new-style version of UserDict I can use?

You can inherit from dict in current versions of Python.

From the documentation:

The need for this class has been largely supplanted by the ability to subclass directly from dict (a feature that became available starting with Python version 2.2).
