LaunchServices/Finder refuses to recognize my NSDocument subclass

Hi all-

I'm working on a document-based application, but having trouble getting the Finder to match my document to my application. On disk, the document is a package. I am successfully writing the directory and the contents to disk, and the directory is written with the proper extension (.pflow).

On the un-successful side, the directory appears as a regular folder in the finder. Here are the relevant entries to my app's Info.plist... do you see anything amiss?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd ">

Any help you can give is much appreciated!
