Well I worked out my issue, had to enable the remote plugin on my 
gallery site.  Adding that to the documentation would no doubt help others.

After clearing that hurdle I'm having some problems adding galleries 
using F-Spot.  A test run of one word entries for Name, Description and 
Title works, but adding more words to the Description and Title causes 
an exception in both the dapper repository version and the cvs version.

Test Case1: passes
Name:test
Description:test
Title:test


Test Case1:  fails
Name:test
Description:some words
Title:test

Test Case 2: fails
Name:test
Description:test
Title:some words
