I haven't looked at the attachement, but can you quickly check if the class of
objects you want searchable has 'CatalogAware' as a base class? If you want
objects to be automatically added to the catalog when they are added or changed
you need to make CatalogAware a base class. Otherwise you have to manually find
and add objects through the management interface of ZCatalog.
