 ''' ZRoundup module - exposes the roundup web interface to Zope
+
+This frontend works by providing a thin layer that sits between Zope and the regular CGI
+interface of roundup, providing the web frontend with the minimum of effort.
+
+This means that the regular CGI interface does all authentication quite independently of
+Zope.
+
+It also means that any requests which specify :filter, :columns or :sort _must_ be done
+using a GET, so that this interface can re-parse the QUERY_STRING. Zope interprets the
+':' as a special character, and the special args are lost to it.
