[ckan-dev] including organization in a package_create

Tue Jun 11 11:51:24 UTC 2013

Hi,

Henrik is right, you need to use the "owner_org" param to define the
id of the organization.

This has been now documented [1] but for some reason the docs fail to
pick this change. We'll need to have a look at this.
