Grrrr....

The cataloguing code in Squishdot amounts to about 4 lines, all of which
are calls to standard ZCatalog interface methods as described in:
http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/Projects/Interfaces/ZCatalog

If you don't believe me, grep squishdot.py for catalog_object and
uncatalog_object...

That wouldn't actually change the number of catalog-related lines of
code in Squishdot. It was merely increase the compelxity of the product
by adding CatalogAware as another base class for postings.

CatalogAware isn't quite right ;-)
