@JoshRosen Do we really want to deprecate the Twitter APIs before there is
a user-friendly way to use it in an external package? I think there is a large
user base for this feature, and it is a motivating example for the use of Spark
Streaming in the programming guide and the code examples. I've also seen AMP
Camp exercises built around this Twitter package. If this package is so heavily
featured in teaching Spark Streaming and demonstrating its applications, then I
think it would be strange to deprecate it before there is an easy-to-use
alternative.
