Hi Jason,
there's something wrong in your code example.
You can't parse result with minidom. I think it should be something like
from StringIO import StringIO
import logging
[...]
try:
dom = minidom.parse(StringIO(result.content))
except:
logging.exception('Failed to parse XML:')
self.response.out.write('failed!')
logging.exception() logs the actual exception. This log message should
give you a hint what's going wrong. I have no troubles importing
minidom...
