Stefan Friesel commented on LIBCLOUD-396:
-----------------------------------------
As an alternative to Ivan's patch, there could also be a distinction between
data == '' and data is None, the former meaning empty/no content and the latter
unspecified content, in which case the Content-Length should remain untouched
(independent of http method).

> (Provider.CLOUDFILES_SWIFT).

> content length (in libcloud/common/base.py).
> The proposed fix: set the length to 0 only if it is not already set.
