Oh. Thanks. I'm just starting to get into this whole TDD thing -- I should
know by now to just look for the tests. They usually contain answers to most
of my usage questions. Thanks again Jan.

See the attachment tests at

written docs will follow.

Thanks for getting this feature in. Is there any documentation on this new
API? I've seen a lot of mention of this coming, but nothing formal to code
against. I suppose I could start throwing PUTs and DELETEs against the new
trunk to see what sticks, but if there's something already out there, it'd
save some time.
