History

This code was originally forked from Leah Culver and Andy Smith's oauth.py code. Some of the tests come from a fork by Vic Fryzel, while a revamped Request class and more tests were merged in from Mark Paschal's fork. Forked again from joestump's python-oauth2 which seems to be unmaintained. A number of notable differences exist between this code and its forefathers:

• Nearly 100% unit test coverage.
• Classes are no longer prefixed with OAuth.
• The Request class now extends from dict.
• The library is likely no longer compatible with Python 2.3.
• The Client class works and extends from httplib2. It's a thin wrapper that handles automatically signing any normal HTTP request you might wish to make.
