Here is the summary of this discussion:

1. Ville has stated that he wouldn't mind moving setup.py out of the 
top-level folder.

2. Kent and Matt say pip expects setup.py to be in the top-level folder.

3. I would prefer that setup.py not exist. The installation instructions 
make no mention of setup.py.

I plan to move setup.py to leo/dist for the following reasons:

A. Kent and Matt presumably use git to get the latest sources, so even for 
them setup.py is optional.

B. Putting setup.py in the top-level has indeed caused confusion in the 
past.  This will continue to be so regardless of setup.py value.

Further comments welcome.

Edward
