Accidentally de-cced the list. Re-adding now.

I'm installing this into a clean virtualenv, and then copy all packages out. I may have to fiddle with .pth files a bit though to get everything working.

OK, so I do have to install every framework wrapper separately. I was hoping that since the dependencies are all listed in the 'empty' pyobjc project I could reuse that somehow. I will tweak develop.sh to do what I want and report back.
