That is a proxy on GAE that makes it easier to complete the OAuth2 flow. The source code of the proxy is here: https://github.com/astrada/gd-ocaml-auth. More info about the authorization process: https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse/wiki/Autho.... Let me know if you need further info.

Fair enough. I can't imagine that most users will want to pass access tokens through your proxy, despite the hassle it saves. I would suggest making proxied auth /not/ the default or at least divulging the use of the proxy in a more prominent fashion in your documentation. Just a suggestion. People get sensitive when it comes to their personal cloud storage.

I see your point. Thanks for your feedback.
