ok, it's checked in. However, this command assumes 'qmtest.py' is
executable (which it is after installation). So to make it work
even inside the source tree the qm/test/qmtest.py file's permissions
have to be changed.

What else is missing / can I do to bring the new build system up to
speed so the old stuff can be dropped ? As soon as the file layout
is a bit reorganized there is quite a bit of cleanup that can be done.

Also, you may consider to provide more metadata to the setup.py file
(see 
http://www.python.org/doc/current/dist/setup-script.html#SECTION000360000000000000000).

That would help increase the project's visibility especially inside
the python community, which will certainly draw in many new users.

In a similar vein, what do you think about a set of demo databases
to get users up to speed with the concepts and the possibilities
of qmtest ?

I'd be willing to help assemble some...
