I managed to solve my problem with a minimal patch, attached to https://fedorahosted.org/suds/ticket/323

It allows setting a value on an element like this:

	myobject.MyElement.value = Property("Hello from Suds!")
	myobject.MyElement._MyAttribute = "123"

producing

	<MyElement MyAttribute="123">Hello from Suds!</MyElement>

I would like some comments on this. Is it the correct way to solve the problem?

Thanks,
Erik
