Hi Andy, [ When replying to emails on this list, please do not put your reply above the quoted text, and do not quote the entire message you're answering to. This makes it unnecessarily hard for other readers to understand the context of your email. Instead, please cut quoted parts that are not relevant to your reply, and insert your responses right after the points you're replying to (as I have done below). Thanks! ]

So the bigger disruption for you would probably be the upgrade of S3QL, not the change of the authentication method. As a matter of fact, you can use the legacy and OAuth2 API at the same time, so I think the transition should be very smooth. > For s3ql usage, would OAuth2 change the tag from 'gs' to 'gs2', as was > done with swift?

You can already use OAuth2 authentification with S3QL at the moment if you specify "oauth2" as the login and your refresh token as the password. The change would (probably) be that S3QL just aborts if you specify anything but 'oauth2' as the login. Best, Nikolaus -- GPG encrypted emails preferred.
