Issues importing models in between apps

Hi,

I had an application with a fairly large models.py file, which I split
up into separate apps to make it easier to manage.

Two of the apps are called "conferences" and "people", each with their
own models.py.

These two are fairly tightly entwined, they each refer to each other.

At the top of project_name/conferences/models.py, I have:

from django.db import models
from nextgen.people.models import Person

At the top of project_name/people/models.py, I have:

from django.db import models
from project_name.conferences.models import Conference

However, when I try to run ./manage.py validate, it gives me an error:

File "/sites/.virtualenvs/project_name/src/django/django/utils/
importlib.py", line 35, in import_module
__import__(name)
File "/home/victorhooi/djangoProjects/project_name/../
project_name/conferences/models.py", line 2, in <module>
from project_name.people.models import Person
File "/home/victorhooi/djangoProjects/project_name/../
project_name/people/models.py", line 3, in <module>
from project_name.conferences.models import Conference
ImportError: cannot import name Conference

I'm not sure why this is happening - from the looks of it, it's
opening up conferences/models.py, then importing people.models.Person
from there, which inside of that tries to import Conference - is it
somehow clashing?

Or is there a better way of creating multiple apps that all share
models? The main reason I split it up was for logically separating all
the different models, they still all need to import/relate to each
other.

Cheers,
Victor
