Bug description:
I was trying to create a zc.buildout style project of deployement of OpenERP. I created a customer python egg project which will act as a kind of patch to customized our OpenERP installation.

By doing that I discovered that all the code of  OpenObject lib is located in the bin/ dir and cannot be used as an external library. It's a very stange organisation of the code. 

By example, of you take a look at the openobject-client-web project, there's is a directory at the top named "openobject" containing all the code. I can refer to this namespace in other project. But for the server it's very impossible do doing that.

Maybe converting OpenObject as good python citizen would be a important. no ? And if not, how can I import a module of OpenObject in a project ?

I proposed the following architecture:

openobject.server/
    setup.py
    ...
    openobject/
         __init__.py
         server/
             addons/
             ir/
             osv/
             pychart/
             report/
             service/
             ssl/
             tools/
             wizard/
             workflow/
             ...
