Note on Editable Installs / Develop Mode
84-
========================================
85-
86-
- As mentioned previously, using ``setuptools`` in `develop mode`_
87-
or a ``pip`` `editable install`_ is not possible with this
88-
library. This is because this library uses `namespace packages`_.
89-
For context see `Issue #2316`_ and the relevant `PyPA issue`_.
90-
91-
Since ``editable`` / ``develop`` mode can't be used, packages
92-
need to be installed directly. Hence your changes to the source
93-
tree don't get incorporated into the **already installed**
94-
package.
