Hi There

before I go for a pull request on "yql open tables" 
(https://github.com/yql/yql-tables)
I let the horde folks play with it.

The final draft should only be accessible over https:// . (passwords)


Pro:

    -makes it easier for developers to access the api to power external
    sites.
    -speed: you can run horde on a slow server and speed things up with
    caching on yahoo servers (cdn).

Con

    - depending on yql (yahoo)
    - be careful with the limits
    - yql open tables at the moment runs not on a 100% uptime :-(

At this point you can play with some turba tables and a test file where 
you can access any api-method from horde, which takes no arguments.

Some infos and docs: http://www.stachura.ch/howtos/yql-horde.php

The Console with a basic request:
horde.listApps on the yql console... <http://y.ahoo.it/SPgWkL/D>

the open tabels are on github 
https://github.com/stachrom/yql-tables/tree/master/horde/

regards roman
