I think there is one thing missing from the install instructions in the
(now much improved) ckanext-datastorer README, you need to cd into the
pyenv/src/ckanext-datastorer directory and run:

    python setup.py install

or if you were planning on doing development work on ckanext-datastorer
itself then you'd probably find it more convenient to use:

    python setup.py develop

Then cd back to the pyenv/src/ckan directory and run paster serve
development.ini, CKAN should run without the plugin not found error.

Worked for me. Let me know if that works, Jim
