To answer a couple of Barry's comments in reply to Eric...
__package__ should be set to the empty string if I'm reading PEP 362 correctly
(and importlib isn't broken): "When the import system encounters an explicit
relative import in a module without __package__ set (or with it set to None),
it will calculate and store the correct value (__name__.rpartition('.')[0] for
normal modules and __name__ for package initialisation modules". If someone
sets __package__ to None, then importlib fills it in as necessary.
As for the diagram(s), I have attached the overall PDF that I still have from
my original Omnifgraffle file (which I don't have a license to anymore) that I
built my PyCon 2008 presentation with. It's probably outdated at this point. I
will have to redo them for my PyCon Argentina/Brasil (maybe US?) import talks
anyway.
