try

<browser:page
   for=".interfaces.IBuddyFolder"
   name="hello.html"
   template="hello.pt"
   permission="zope.ManageContent"
   />

the class attribute describes a 'view' class and not your 'model' class. 
a view class is a multiadapter to the context (your buddyfolder 
instance) and the request:

class BuddyFolderView:

  def __init__(self, context, request):
      ....

versus

class BuddyFolder:
  def __init__(self):
     ...

such a view class you are going to use  if your context (model) should 
provide additional interfaces.
