Developer discussion for Creative Commons technology and tools

["Bruno Dilly" <bruno.dilly AT gmail.com>]

I don't think I have time to extend the API for uploads before SoC
deadline, but I can do it later. I'll continue developing CC tools.

Really I'm reading the entire file into memory before writing into the
socket. I don't know how I could do it better, I will study this
point.

I'm appreciating all these suggestions and discussion.

Thanks,

Bruno
