Well, the things that differ from python twitter is that this package already provides support for Python 3 and is under active development. Another features are: - Query data for: - User information - Twitter lists - Timelines - Direct Messages - and anything found in `the docs <https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1>`_ - Image Uploading: - Update user status with an image - Change user avatar - Change user background image - Change user banner image > Do we need two different sets of python > wrappers around Twitter's API? Yeah I wondered the same thing. The fact that upstream is very active and the python3 support conviced me to package it. --- Josue Ortega «Happy Hacking» http://josueortega.org
