[Pulp-dev] Does everything live in pulp.app?

[Brian Bouterse]

The 30ish tasks themselves are not yet moved. Those currently are still 
in their existing homes in pulp.server.path.to.a.task. I don't plan to 
move them with my changes.

When we do move the tasks, we may run into import issues at that time, 
but I think we will be able to resolve them. We may want to move them 
into the package pulp.tasking.registry. It would be great to have all of 
our tasks defined in one place.
