Thanks, that's indeed a documentation bug.

I've updated the documentation to reflect this now in SVN. One question 
is whether this really works with Role. I couldn't find a test that 
tests this, so that's a testing issue at least. I tried adjusting a test 
to try it out, but I got errors in my test run.

This implies that the documentation in SVN is now ahead of the code. 
Could someone add a test that tests direct permission references in 
grok.Role?

This ought to work:

class MyPermission(grok.Permission):
     ...

class MyPermissions2(grok.Permission):
     ...

class Foo(grok.Role):
     ...
     grok.permissions(MyPermission, MyPermission2)

Thanks, brave test-adder. :)

Regards,
