[CentralOH] sys.path and utility routines

[m g]

A lesser option, one that using virtualenv would side step, is to just
place the code somewhere in sys.path (programatically or manually).
This is typically frowned upon because it pollutes your installation.
Also, its not really a good idea to go behind your package managers
back.

Personally, on a new box, I install virtualenv, and then just create
environments in $HOME, maintaining a clean site-packages directory.

I would be interested in hearing how others manage this.
