"files in static" ? I'm not sure what that means, unless you mean "other 
modules in the directory"

IIUC, grok:grok package="." should grok all modules in the current 
directory, including your viewlet.py… but I've not played with this much.

Worst case, you should be able to configure components with ZCML.
