+Because of the super innovative state of our code, we need to use twisted 

+stuff that isn't even in twisted yet!

+

+This code lets us store new style python classes (that allow properties and 

+stuff) in package files.

+

+In order to have your exe code load packages you need to apply this patch to

+$PYTHON_LIB_DIR/site-packages/twisted/spread/jelly.py

+

+with these commands:

+on linux:

+su

+cd /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/spread/

+patch jelly.py jelly.patch

+python /usr/lib/python2.3/compileall.py .

+

+on win32:

+download and extract patch.exe from 

+http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/UnxUtils.zip into c:\windows\system32

+cd c:\python23\lib\site-packages\twisted\spread

+patch jelly.py jelly.patch

+python c:\python23\lib\compileall.py .

+

+

+This patch will be standard in the next release of twisted.core
