| 9 | Thrift is provided as a set of Python packages. The top level package is |
| 10 | thrift, and there are subpackages for the protocol, transport, and server |
| 11 | code. Each package contains modules using standard Thrift naming conventions |
| 12 | (i.e. TProtocol, TTransport) and implementations in corresponding modules |

| 14 | the generated code for the reflection structures. |
