You're almost there.  You need to create an instance of your configuration
subclass, and use it when you create your publisher.  Taking the example
from the docs, your driver script would have:

        app = Publisher("quixote.demo")

Tweak that to be:

        app = Publisher("quixote.demo", config = OopsConfig ())

At least...that's how I did it...
