Ah,

this is used by the makefile systme to make the build tree.

in the source tree, auth is in:
binarycloud/base/core/Auth.php

in the build tree, it's in:
binarycloud/core/Auth.php

and you import auth using

import('binarycloud.core.Auth');

Auth is not done! :)

That isn't a functional file, it won't do a thing right now.

yes, import is just like java:

in the build tree, 
binarycloud/core/Lang.php exists, and that does work :) It sets the language
based on client settings and app preferences.
