I am able to successfully mount and see my local docs and all shared folders,
but the shared folders are empty. I am using Google Apps Premier. Let me know
if I can assist in any testing.

All my folders are empty, shared or not.

My folders also appear to be empty, shared or not. There were no problems
yesterday. Hopefully, this is a temporary problem at Google.

Problem with empty folders still persists as of Nov. 24, 2010. Is it really a
fault at Google end?

I wrote stripped version of google-docs-fs which provides read-only access to
accounts with shared folders.
* It uses version 3.0 of GDocs List API via gdata v.2.0.13 library.
* It also allows you to download any file types (hello, PDFs!)
* and shows correct file size for files which use quota (e.g. not native GDocs formats).
* I also added caching of directory listings, so it should work faster, but after you mount GDocs you won't see ongoing changes. (As far as I know it was already true for file contents.)
I attached this version with bundled gdata. Hope it'll ease your pain. :)

@dmalinovsky. Works great, except that only 2/8 folders are visible and most of
my files at root level are not. This only happens at root level, sub folders
are not affected (as far as I can tell).
I also tried it on my test account. On my test account I have three folders
that I own and one of them is a shared folder. My shared folder is not listed
with ls and is not accessible. The test account also have one folder shared
from my other account. This folder is visible and accessible. One other thing:
one or two files from the sub directories are listed directly on root level
(without any apparent pattern).
However, it felt good to download a pdf's and other files. :)

@henrik.gorlin. I guess I need to test it more yet. :) Can you tell what's the
difference between your visible and invisible folders? Also, do you have other
version of google-docs-fs installed, maybe it's interfering with new one?

Sorry, I was writing in a hurry (as I do now). What I mean by not
visible/invisible is that the files and folders just do not appear in the mount
folder (~/gdocs), as if they does not exist.
I do have an older version of gdata installed globally. But I run your version
locally (without running setup.py). Perhaps this is not enough? Therefore I
tested it all again in a chroot environment and the problem persists.
This is what should present in my mount folder at root level:
Folder1 (old and shared by me)
Folder2 (old and shared with me)
Folder3 (new)
Folder4 (new)
What is present? Folder 2, 3 and 4 are present but Folder1 is not. Well this is
my test account.
On my ordinary account most of my files and folders at root level are not
showing up at all, regardless of whether they are shared (by/with me) or not.
Like before, I see no apparent pattern.
These problems aside, it works and it is fast. Nice!

OK, Henrik, thanks for your feedback. I'll do more testing later with more
data, hopefully I find bugs.
Local version doesn't need to run setup.py, this file can be removed safely.

Hmm, I see missing folders with my other Google account. So I'll fix it sooner
then I thought.

I added fix to retrieve more files & folders for the root folder. For some
reason not all folders are retrieved still, but now it works better.

Hi, do we have a solution with the empty shared folders?
@dmalinovsky: do you have read-write patch for your script modification?

No, I choose not to bother myself with it since we didn't use writing anyway.
