[skeleton] do not import the __pkginfo__.py module to make cubes installable via setuptools When using a simple "import" statement, running 'python setup.py install' for a cube fails in a fresh virtualenv due to the fact the install of the dependencies (here cubicweb iteself) is done by the python process doing the cube's installation, so the __pkginfo__ module from the cube is already loaded (thus used) when installing cubicweb... So we apply the third technique from: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/single_source_version.html

Ajax
----

CubicWeb provides a few helpers to facilitate *javascript <-> python* communications.

You can, for instance, register some python functions that will become
callable from javascript through ajax calls. All the ajax URLs are handled
by the :class:`cubicweb.web.views.ajaxcontroller.AjaxController` controller.
