Re: Windows Live SkyDrive support

 

Hallo Christian,

SkyDrive does not have an API (yet?), so there is no way to access it
programatically... So for now, there will be no SkyDrive support
unless someone reverse-engineers the protocol they use on the web
interface and makes a plugin.

Cheers,
Philipp
