Note that WinZip, which is commonly used, doesn't archive zero-length files under some circumstances; occasionally people run into this when they unzip a directory and can't import from the package. Hence the convention of just putting a comment in __init__.py, to avoid having a zero-length file.
Docstrings are also nice candidates, but I don't know if that's the right thing for the "mx" package. It's a little different from the simpler packages that were initialy envisioned. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org>
