[Distutils] Convention for installing binary data files

Hi there, I'm a newcomer to distutils, so sorry in advance if this is a question that is too obvious for everyone... I was wondering what the convention is for including binary data files with the installation of a module. Like say I had a table called table.data, that I wanted to have be installed with everything else on python setup.py install - should the data file be part of install_py, or install_ext, or something else? We'd like to use distutils to package up a current project, but weren't sure about this point, and couldn't find it in the docs... --Brian Hooper
