ChrisA,

Thanks for sharing your approach. Rather than use the built-in venv I
installed virtualenv in the project's root directory (and added bin/,
include/, and lib/ in .gitignore).

While it's working (I activate it when ready to work on the code and
deactivate it when done), I'm still struggling to figure out the proper
syntax to import a module that's in another package.
