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

Yeah I wondered the same thing. The fact that upstream is very active and
the python3 support conviced me to package it.
