In which case, perhaps we should change InterfaceInterface and 
InterfaceBaseInterface from Interface/iclass.py to reflect this.

The ZDG should also be updated to reflect this, as the example is wrong.

   http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZDG/ComponentsAndInterfaces.stx

  from Interface import Base

       class Hello(Base):
           """ The Hello interface provides greetings. """

           def hello(self, name):
               """ Say hello to the name """

       class HelloComponent:

           __implements__ = Hello

           def hello(self, name):
               return "hello %s!" % name


Shall I throw this into the Collector?
