[Grok-dev] Problem with packages containing views

[Steve Schmechel]

Hi Stefano,

I will first ask for some simple clarifications to find any real
obvious mistakes - the kind I always seem to make :-)

If this doesn't help and it turns out to be something deep in the 
grokking process, someone else will hopefully help as I am not a 
guru in that area.

Do you mean that you copied all the code from the "too big" views.py 
module into __init__.py?
You didn't further break the code into modules within the package?

Do you mean you moved the contents of the directory (views_templates/*.pt)
into the views/templates directory?
(For example - "views/templates/myview.pt"
**not** - "views/templates/views_templates/myview.pt")

Question to grok devs: Is the __init__.py of a package grokked also or just the appropriate classes defined within other modules in a package?
(Maybe it doesn't matter, but it would be an odd place to try to follow 
the default template directory naming convention, as you would 
potentially get a template for a view defined in __init__.py expected 
at: "__init___templates/someview.pt")
