Sorry, now I'm showing my lack of knowledge. I thought DirectoryView's were the
things that picked up stuff from the filesystem?

What I'm thinking of doing to get around my problem is to haev a
'PlaceholderFolder' object that when asked for it's contents will
restrictedTraverse off somewhere else and get it's contents from there. Then I
can haev one fodler up in the root and add placeholders in the portal_skins of
any CMF instances that I want to 'share' that skin layer with.

Am I making any sense? (where's the red bull when I need it ;-)

cheers,

Chris
