[Zope-CMF] Re: CMFUid isn't generating real uids

[Gregoire Weber]

Hi Chris!

There is a flag (boolean) in 'portal_uidannotation' named
'Remove the objects unique id on add (and import)' (the
properties name is 'remove_on_add').

If you unckeck it before importing your content the uids
will be retained.
