Thanks Gael, I wasn't sure whether this group or the formalchemy group was most appropriate - it is a pyramid specific package.
Editing permissions as you suggested got me some of the way there ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5671300/pyramid-and-formalchemy-admin-interfacesupplements the documentation fairly well). However, I continue to have problems with the setup. The basic install appears to contain references to the (not installed) jquery interface and consequently fails. I'll try the formalchemy list and hopefully get clarification on what is going on.
