attention.

> I've been receiving occasional errors from the Mashery Proxy in front of the 
> GoGrid API. I have modified the GoGrid driver to do the following:
> 1. Use POSTs in place of GETs for API calls with the potential to provision, 
> destroy or reboot servers. These aren't actually used in the fix I eventually 
> settled on, but should probably be used in any case.
> 2. When checking for the success of a request, check for headers indicating a 
> proxy error and raise an exception specific to this error.
> 3. Implement a counter to retry requests up to 20 times, once every 10 
> seconds, when these errors occur. I haven't spent too much time tuning this, 
> but with 10 retries I was still getting occasional failures.
> I'll be attaching the patch momentarily, or these changes (among others) have 
> been applied to my github fork at: http://github.com/russellhaering/libcloud
