[issue8398] Modules with a dot in the filename don't load

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti at gmail.com> added the comment:

If you do "import GetMy.com_MOD" Python will search for the module named "com_MOD" in the package "GetMy".
The name of the module should be a valid Python identifier -- possibly all lowercase (see PEP8). GetMy.com_MOD is not a valid identifier, so you wouldn't even be able to do GetMy.com_MOD.some_func() once you imported it.

See http://docs.python.org/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-import-statement for more information.
