[Zope-CMF] Re: allow managers to use setMemberProperties() method

[David Bain]

You're going to have to hold my hand a bit with this.
would these steps be correct.
1. create the external method
2. call the external method from within a python script / zpt

with respect to self.portal_membership

if the information was sent through the REQUEST what would be the equivalent 
of "self".
