Yes. web2py/site-packages. It depends to some extent on how much app-specific references are used, I guess. For example, if your "site packages" module contains functions that operate internally on objects with members that are only defined inside the apps, then I would rather suggest that that code remain within the scope of the app (and then: why share that code anyway between apps?), but if the code is more generic, and especially if multiple apps are going to use it, then site-packages is a good spot.
