[ckan-dev] help with the storage API

Mon May 23 17:29:51 UTC 2011

Hello,

Thanks a lot Rufus and William! I am able now to save to the storage
space. 
I am doing it through the /api/auth/form to get the form fields,
populate them then upload to Google Storage.

I will soon have a working alpha version so that I can get your
feedback.

Regards,
Fadi
