Access to throttled API
So, I might be writing an app to access a throttled API. Say we're limited to sixty requests per minute. It's entirely possible that we generate more requests than that at peak times. The app is not especially immediacy-sensitive for things like "reporting". The remote system can take its time generating reports so for some things, showing "pending" isn't a dead loss, we can always re-run the request later to get the data. There should be some form of global throttle manager just keeping track of our usage. All our user interaction can be logged in the database and pulled out and actioned by some form of daemon maybe? The daemon can even prioritise interactive operations agains the longer batchy one and unfilfilled reports. Thoughts on managing this?

http://24pullrequests.com/ Seems like a neat idea, and oh look, they'll recommend projects! But oh look... "There no project(*hic*) for [Perl] yet, why not add suggest(*hic*) one?" Anyone?
