I think they look ok.. to me, they seem good examples of how to use the module.

I am not really experienced in managing such big projects... but I think it
could be ok, at least for now.

I would personally keep the __init__ trick for every module, because it would
make easier to test a single module when you are still writing it.

But to test many modules subsequently, the code you posted in in #7 is the way
to do.

so... in short, I don't know!! :)
