It's not a Python problem, it's an issue with the JSON handler at Eventful's end. Basically, sometimes the response is JSON, and sometimes it's JSONP. E.g.:
% curl "http://api.eventful.com/json/users/login?app_key=test_key&user=&user_key="; {"nonce":"3740583121","string":"Authorization Required","description":"Please supply a user authentication response using the nonce provided."} % curl "http://api.eventful.com/json/users/login?app_key=test_key&user=&user_key="; var obj = {"nonce":"4740583121","string":"Authorization Required","description":"Please supply a user authentication response using the nonce provided."}; EVDB.API._complete(1, obj); John & I thought it might be that some API servers were out of sync, but it happens on each of them individually too: % curl "http://api01.eventful.com/json/users/login?app_key=test_key&user=&user_key="; {"nonce":"7450583121","string":"Authorization Required","description":"Please supply a user authentication response using the nonce provided."} % curl "http://api01.eventful.com/json/users/login?app_key=test_key&user=&user_key="; var obj = {"nonce":"7450583121","string":"Authorization Required","description":"Please supply a user authentication response using the nonce provided."}; EVDB.API._complete(1, obj); HTH.
