John, I have been playing with the code...I was thinking what is the use of making a release if people can't use it to access public web services like Amazon, Google, TerraService and eBay? Can we spend some time to make our code robust and useful in the real world out-of-the-box? (I can definitely confirm that the code genned out of the box does not work with Google Search API for starters)
