New issue 585 by devuran...@gmx.net: gdata.media.data.MediaContent.text is
a list, but atom/core.py:_attach_members() assumes it is a string
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client/issues/detail?id=585

gdata/media/data.py defines:
class MediaContent(atom.core.XmlElement):
[…]
text = [MediaText]

But atom/core.py assumes it is a string:
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/atom/core.py", line 347, in
_attach_members
tree.text = self.text.decode(encoding)

This leads to an AttributeError. See attached traceback for details and
issue #583 for the original discovery after fixing XML namespaces for
gdata/media and gdata/youtube.
