What kind of idiotic permissions model is this where God cannot create
anything? What is the function of the super user if not to manage?

Seems to be specially designed for bureaucrats, lawyers and politicians.

I have already added the query tinytables back to anonymous. This still
doesn't answer my question. How do I get a zope 2 database to work under
2.2? Do I have to try and reread all the non-existent documentation? 

What parts of the awful API have been further corrupted? The Zope
noospheric habitat seems ripe for take-over by rationalists :)
