[Zope-CMF] CMFBoringContent.

[Jens Vagelpohl]

erik,

here is a code snippet that i am using::

     for skin_name in SKINS:
         if skin_name in installed_skins:
             skins_tool._delObject( skin_name )

     addDirectoryViews( skins_tool, 'skins', my_globals )

notice that i don't use "globals()" directly, my_globals is actually 
defined in my __init__.py as::

my_globals = globals()

and then i import it into the script::

from Products.MyProduct import my_globals

i can't give you the detailed technical explanation why this works as 
opposed to using globals() directly in the script, i just know this works.

HTH
