Hi Robert,

Could you take a couple paragraphs explaining exactly how you reorganized
everything? And also I think posting the patch to its own thread will get
it more attention.

One small thing before you repost: __init__.py had ::LOCALEDIR:: replaced
with /usr/share/locale. This shouldn't be hardcoded and is filled in as
appropriate at build time by setup.py.

Thanks,
Cole
