  1. CONTRIBUTING: Switching pip install to use local install 

    Problem

The current developer install is using
pip setup.py
which creates a distributable installation. If a developer makes changes
to code then they essentailly need to build and reinstall the package

Solution

If pip install -e . is used then the local site packages will
create a symbolic link which means developers can make cahnges locally
and they will automatically picked up.
It also has the bonus of installing dependencies automatically
