[Zope-CMF] Forcing skins by role

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

hmm... Does anyone know if there are problems/changes in CMF 1.3 from 1.3b2
related to setting a skin this way?  I seemed to have a problem like this
when I set up a new CMF 1.3 setup and copied source for a rule from an old
(an access rule that worked on CMF 1.3b2 not working on a CMF 1.3 site,
running on Zope 2.6a)...

Try updating to the current CMF CVS and changing the last two lines to 
the following:

context.changeSkin(newskin)

It was just added this week.
