[ckan-dev] Using CKAN's API via PHP.

[Henrik Aagaard Jørgensen]

Just saw the doc's and apparently it is not possible to access private
datasets via the API with datastore_search_sql:
"DataStore resource that belong to a private CKAN resource cannot be
searched with this action."

How unfortunate.

Sorry for the trouble.
