[AG-TECH] shared apps again

[Dave Semeraro]

Thanks Suzanne,

I sprinkled liberal amounts of try/except pairs in the code and things 
started to work. I am
not sure what this fixed except that I no longer get the datastore errors I 
was getting. I have
found a 2.3 venue server to work with so the original connection error is 
gone. I am now wading
through the errors that were waiting on the other side of the datastore 
problem. I can upload and
download images and am working on the markup part of the application. It 
should be
ready for use in a couple of days.

Thanks again.

Dave
