122	"""from foolscap import api"""	Brian Warner	Brian Warner	"The collection of API calls that are currently exported in {{{foolscap/__init__.py}}} are difficult to handle: it is easy to wind up with circular imports. I'd like to provide {{{foolscap/api.py}}} instead, and have applications pull everything from there. This is a big change, since to really fix things we need to empty {{{foolscap/__init__.py}}}. So I'd like to add {{{api.py}}} in one major release and then remove the symbols from {{{__init__.py}}} in the next.

The immediate goal is to add {{{api.py}}} to the next (0.3.3) release, with all the symbols that are currently in {{{__init__.py}}}, as well as the useful symbols that are not (fireEventually, some of the constraint definitions, some more exception types).
