I am not in the habit of installing products on our server just because some 
self important twat, who could not be bothered to write "try the Docfindertab 
product", mentions a name that might refer to that product.

Now you have spent twise as much time typing the reply, as you would have if 
you had been clear from the start. 

Not to mention nurturing my growing desire to switch to ROR at the first 
oportunity, and demonstrating to potential zope users on the list that asking 
for help wil just get you insulted.

Nice.

On my installaton there is no interfaces.py for OFS, nor for hardly anything 
else.

But never mind, you can spare me you nuggets of wisdom, they are not worth the 
bother.
