Fixed <PermissionMatch> bug for real.
6.68.00
Fixed <PermissionMatch> bug introduced in 6.67.35 that caused a command error like the following or would
not properly match type|nottype <DriveFileACLType> and role|notrole <DriveFileACLRole>.
ERROR: permission attribute allowfilediscovery/withlink not allowed with type {'a', 'y', 'e', 'o', 'n'}
My sincere apologies.
6.67.39
Added option wait <Integer> <Integer> to gam create datatransfer that causes GAM to wait
for the transfer to complete. The first <Integer> must be in the range 5-60 and is the number
of seconds between checks to see if the transfer has completed. The second <Integer> is the maximum
number of checks to perform. By default, GAM does not wait for the transfer to complete.

emails to all tdshare <EmailAddress> users when the file is uploaded/updated.

6.67.34
Added option movetoorgunitdelay <Integer> to gam <UserTypeEntity> create shareddrive <Name> ... ou|org|orgunit <OrgUnitItem>.
GAM creates the Shared Drive, verifies that it has been created and then tries to move it to <OrgUnitItem>. Google seems to
require a delay or the following error is generated.
ERROR: 409: 409 - The operation was aborted.
movetoorgunitdelay defaults to 20 seconds which seems to work; <Integer> can range from 0 to 60.
