Thanks for looking into this, Benoit.  I plan to update us to either
the latest piston release or whatever's in hg this weekend.  Also, I
intend to review and apply Rodrigo's patches (which are already in the
Karmic package), and update Snowy to support the new API.  The idea is
to have this all settled before Monday's release (the last developer
release before Tomboy 1.0).

When you say "latest piston", do you mean whatever's in hg, or the
latest release?

By the way, I believe the problem with our last attempt to upgrade
piston was that that authenticated PUT was broken, but I'll have to
retest and grep logs to be sure.

Thanks,
Sandy
