If you want to reference specific classes in any of the packages in
"visad.data" or it's sub-packages, you need to first do:
from visad import *
before doing something like:
from visad.data.mcidas import PointDataAdapter
Without the first from...import the classloader apparently gets confused by the
class named "visad.Data" and the packages that start with "visad.data".
I have updated the Jython tutorial page on reading files to reflect this.
