[quills-dev] Quills instance not viewable for anonymous

Hi.
Thank you.

I was able te get a site with most of the old content running by  
manually copying it over to
a new instance. I lost old Ploneboard 0.1 content though - there no  
good documentation
about how to migrate that....

But what remains to be a problem is that I can't seem to make a  
Quills blog available
to anonymous visitors. They do see the weblog, but they can't see the  
posts - regardless
of the workflow state these have.

What might be the reason??

Regards,
Oliver Wrede
