Motivation
I normally run archgenxml from an svn checkout. You could link the ArchGenXML.py somewhere from your /usr/local/bin or equivalent.
Python has a much more generic solution for that: use distutils/setuptools/easysetup ("python setup.py install" or "easyinstall archgenxml"). That gives us also the chance to say "I need zope.interface and i18ndude" at the same time.
Later on it'll give us a way to add plugins or what have you.
Proposal
* Write a setup.py/setup.cfg. [done]
* Fix up the usage of __file__ and other absolute paths. [mostly done]
* Sync the branch with the 1.5.0 release tag to get the latest improvements and make the 1.6 branch out of that.
