[Zope-CMF] how to catalog an object, overiding its allowedRolesAndUsers Keyword index

[Chris Withers]

Hi Jean,

Please keep replies CC'ed to the list so everyone can benefit and others can 
pitch in... I've moved this to zope-cmf@zope.org as well, it's a more 
appropriate list if you're using CMF.

Well, from your description below it looks like it _should_ be a content type...

PortalContent automatically has a workflow associated with it, check the 
portal_workflow tool's main page to see which one. It is also automatically 
catalogued.

What is this supposed to do?

This all looks a lot like a content object. What leads you to believe it 
shouldn't be?

That won't work ;-)

I'm not sure what you're trying to do here...
