Actually the base functionality that I wanted to reuse is implemented  
in AddApp. In other words, I did a "grokproject MasterApp" and then  
manually copied AddApp.

Is there any way I can double check that AddApp has been grokked? I  
was thinking that this could be the problem. I am missing both my  
defined grok.View and grok.Permissions and they were all defined in  
app.py of AddApp.

I have tried using Interfaces, but it didn't make any difference,  
hence me thinking that it might be something with the grokking processs.
