 Review comment:
   We import this file in ``setup.py`` to read ``__version__`` attribute from it which means ``setup.py`` calls could fail if ``requests`` is not installed on the system (aka when setup.py is called during installations).
   
   I think it would be safer and better for us to simply parse this file as string and use regex to match ``__version__`` attribute.
   
   Something along those lines - https://github.com/StackStorm/st2/blob/master/scripts/dist_utils.py#L134
