Hi folks, I just wanted to let you know that the WebKit project's
Python code should be a lot easier to navigate and work in now.

Tonight, Adam Barth and I (along with Eric Seidel's blessing) moved
almost all of the modules in WebKitTools/Scripts/webkitpy into
appropriate subfolders of webkitpy (along with some other, similar
high-level clean-ups):

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36093

These changes should make the dependencies in webkitpy much easier to
discover and comprehend, and more inviting in general for people newer
to the code.  This is something we have wanted to do for quite a while
now.

Finally, a summary of how webkitpy/ is organized will go here:
https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/PythonGuidelines

Feel free to contact any of us if something in the scripts is not
working as expected, or if you detect a possible breakage due to these
changes.

Thanks!
--Chris
