This project is an archetype much like the maven interpretation of archetypes (structures for projects). The main difference is that it should be customized manually rather than through properties.

Setup as project

After retrieving the archetype (through copy, git...) it should be setup to fit the project. The following changes should be performed:

rename the groupid package
rename the artifactid package
change the groupid in MANIFEST.in to the actual identifier
change the groupid.artifactid import in setup.py

Additionnaly, one should fill in the DESCRIPTION.md and rewrite this README.md file.
