[Zope] Weird error in python module

[Jens Vagelpohl]

your indentation looks screwy. i can already see from the code below that 
the body of your method is indented 3 spaces from the method signature.

i would assume the method signature (the line starting with "def") is 
indented one space too far. make sure you look at the indentation in code 
*above* your method as well.
