[ckan-discuss] Ckan 2.0: Adding datasets to groups that you are not a part of

Tue May 7 15:37:47 BST 2013

I've just adria's
https://github.com/okfn/ckanext-repo/tree/master/ckanext/repo plugin to
demo, if you scroll to the bottom you'll see

     Using 18d5859 <https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/18d5859> from
branch release-v2.0.
     Last updated 2013-04-08 16:14:48.

I think this issue was the same as
https://github.com/okfn/ckan/pull/509which I think was merged into
release-v2.0 after demo was upgraded
