Alright...a final follow up.  I adhered to your directions, Nick,
taking the "http://"; out of the severname I was passing into the
ConfigureRemoteDatastore method and everything works now.  I wrote a
Python definition/mapping for the entity kind my app deals with and
can now remotely pull entities using your demo console.  Awesome!
Really, a commendable little api you have put together.  It's gonna
keep me from having to come up with a clumsy, nasty workaround for
that 30 second process deadline and also from digging too far into my
quotas for things I can easily do on a local machine.
Thanks again,
Nick Z
