I'd call anything that relies on a specific file system layout to be internals. We only make guarantees on the semantics of the Python import system, not how packages and modules are stitched together in distributions and end up on the file system. > Obviously.

I thought the call to software home was being made inside ZMySQLDA and not in Zope 2 code.
