I've tried

import org.foo.Test
>>>> ImportError: No module named foo

import org.foo
>>>> ImportError: No module named foo

from org.foo import Test
>>>> ImportError: No module named foo


But I've discovered that if I use a different name org->com it works.
Originally I thought that the first part of the package had to be a new name, but now I have a
different view

If, at that point (with "org", after the above errors), I do "import xyz" I get

>>> import xyz
*sys-package-mgr*: processing new jar, '/home/andrea/foo/jython/andrea.jar')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named xyz

And then all my classes have been imported!

My best understanding is that some import don't trigger a rescan of all jar, while others do.

Is anybody reading all that?
