Hi,

Finally I've added the features I implemented in publishcchost to
ccPublisher. Now it's possible to upload files to any ccHost
Installation - or almost

I've done extensive testing with:
a local installation (default)
www.ccmixter.org
www.ccmixter.co.za
www.esolpc.com/teacherhost
www.opensourcecinema.org
openclipart.org/cchost/
tvlivre.org/cchost

I've got problems with ccmixter.org, as I've said a week ago, and with
openclipart.org/cchost/, because it raises a HTMLParseError, regarding
a malformed start tag. But everything else is OK.

I'm writing a little tutorial into ccWiki,
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CcPublisher_Uploading_to_ccHost_Installations

I still have a lot of optimization to do, but for now it's all I have to show.

Cheers,

Bruno

Heya, it would still be awesome to extend the API for uploads as this
has been coming up more frequently.

I agree as well!
