  I dont' really know, probably this meta doesn't work as expected.

  I clearly know from my tests that:

  - with zope2.Public as a permission on my view it was not public
    (anonymous could not access it),

  - if I use zope.Public I got an error that this permission didn't
    exists (while loading the ZCML),

  - and if I defined zope.Public with a permission ZCML tag and used it
    it worked (my view was public for real, anonymous could access it).

  (and I have the same thing in my site.zcml, and I even include
  Products.Five in my ZCML myself).

  Probably I should open a launchpad issue.

  Regards,

  Sylvain,
