Thanks for the reply Tres.  While I *think* I understand what you have said,
I don't have any idea how to fix this.  Effectively, the traceback is saying
that there is something wrong with my factory right?  But it was simply
added when the zclass was created, so what could be wrong?  Sorry if I'm
being a bit dense, but if you could provide any more pointers/urls, I'd
really appreciate it.

thanks
