[Zope-CMF] CMF Collector: fail to create

[Zopista]

You need to add Collectors from the CMF interface, not the ZMI. These steps
are in the INSTALL.txt file!

You could just automate import of the zexp and the setting of the workflow
in the install script... then you dont have to move .zexp anywhere...

I had to make one modification as well to get mine to work:

line 491 of Collector.py:         custom = ('id',
needs to be:         custom = (#'id',

ie comment out the id standard field, cos its already there.
