  1. Include tests in release source tarball

    It would be great to include the test suite in the pypi release tarball.
    That way people who download and build the release can run the tests to
    ensure the library is working.
    
    Linux distributions, such as Debian, base their packages of Python
    modules on the pypi release. This means the test suite can be run when
    building a Debian package, it should catch mistakes in the packaging or
    errors in dependencies.
    
    I've written some more on this topic on the Debian Python mailing list.
