OK, good.

SimpleItem already inherits from Persistent, Acquisition.Implicit, and
AccessControl.Role.RoleManager, so you should be able to scratch them, and
lessen the definition to

Ah. Most likely a rights problem, then.

Nah, it's better to set up it as protected to a certain right.

security.declarePublic('View', 'my_public_stuff') will set your function so
that everybody that has "View" rights can call the function. Then you need
to set up anonymous so it has "View" rights, but thats default.
