Public bug reported:

The name used for the startup module of the openerp server, "openerp-
server" is in fact an invalid module name, because of the hypen. It is
actually worse then in previous versions of openerp, because it is also
missing the .py extension. Both of these lead to problems when loading
openerp source code in development tools that care about these things,
like pydev.

This is the message from pydev:
"Invalid name for Python module: openerp-client (it'll not be analyzed)"

Now that in 6.1 the position and name of the startup module is changing
anyway, why not rename it to openerp_server.py?

The same occurs also in the client ofcourse and in the web module. And
would it not be better to have these scripts always within the bin
directory (IMHO this would be preferable), or alternatively always in
the "root"?
