1. You must place a file __init__.py in each sub-directory (folder) from which you will import, such as your models and views directories.
2. The __init__.py in your models directory must import all modules containing modules. When you add an app to installed apps in settings.py, django will import models in that app. Normally this is models.py and importing it causes the model classes to be defined, and their __metaclass__ (do not confuse this with the Meta nested class) registers the model. This is how syncdb can know what models exist, for example. But in your case only models/__init__.py is imported, unless that, in turn, imports the other modules. I still can't promise that this will work, since I don't know whether other parts of django assume and test for the existance of an actual models.py file in the app directory. But. java practice notwithstanding, there is nothing wrong with having several models in one models.py module, so why fight against the design of django? If your collection of models is truly so complex that they should be separated into more than one module, then perhaps your app is too complex, and should be refactored into multiple applications.
