[Zope] Security Settings for a newly imported Module

[complaw@hal-pc.org]

Andreas:

As you have experience in this area, perhaps you could give me one last
enlightening jolt.  Assume for instance that you created a Product in
../lib/python/Products/MyModule and added fpformat.py to it.  What security
settings would you change via the product management screen in order to avoid
the authorization challenge from appearing?

Thanks in advance,

Ron
