Please note that this is __init__.py and not init.py. Furthermore, you will need 
to add a configure.zcml files with directives to initialize the "add" views for 
you directories and plug an adequate XMLAdapter if you want to add GenericSetup 
support for you new directory class.

Please also note that you should implement ZCacheable as well (as 
LDAPBAckingDirectory and ZODBDirectory do) in order to maintain acceptable 
performance using a RAMCacheManager instance such as 
portal_directories/dir_ramcache which is created in the default profile.
