Hello list

Python 3.4 applies.

I have a project that involves distributing Python code to users in an 
organisation. Users do not interact directly with the Python code; they only 
know this project as an Excel add-in.

Now, internal audit takes exception in some cases if users are able to see the 
source code.

So I'm wondering if anyone has clever suggestions in this regard...

My current plan is to modify the bdist_wheel setuptools extension so that it 
can produce distributions with only the .pyc files, laid out so that they will 
be importable in the normal way. This will be sufficient to satisfy internal 
audit, and will not negatively impact our users.

However there are obvious downsides, including the overhead of maintaining 
separate wheels for different architectures and (in the future) Python 
versions. Not to mention that this plan seems to go against the grain of how 
Python wants to use byte code files...

Is there a better solution?
