I'm not sure, but you guys seem a bit Windows-centric. I have yet to 
find out if the egg-approach actually works for Linux (and Mac, though I 
don't use it) as well. I've seen some mentioning of binary dependencies, 
which makes me frown a bit. We'll just see.

Yeah, I've been reading through that for the past couple of hours, seems 
pretty sweet and reasonably simple.
I can see your reorg, by the way: The example .py files are not where 
they're advertised to be. Better be quick with that, even solid software 
with buggy documentation is buggy software ... ;)
