It's been a week since I posted this and I haven't gotten a response. I'm a little confused about the Google Apps API code. I saw the new graphical reporting stuff, but no one seems to be interested in the base reporting API. Can anyone tell me if this code is being maintained? Does Google maintain it? I've seen some other patches submitted, but I'm not sure it is being rolled into the "official" package.
I'm happy to keep my own fork of this code, but it would seem that others could benefit from patches that others can submit. Can anyone at Google let me know how this works?
