+External Open edX Python API helpers goes here.

+ * Those APIs should be stable and abstract internal changes.
+
+ * Non-stable and internal APIs should be placed in other modules.
+
+ * The parameters of existing functions should change in a backward compatible way:
+   - No parameters should be removed from the function
+   - New parameters should have safe defaults
+ * For breaking changes, new functions should be created
