 Did you install the full developer release, or just the
 Net::Twitter::Role::API::Lists module?  Are you using Basic or OAuth
 authentication?

 Changes were made to both Net::Twitter::Core and
 Net::Twitter::Role::OAuth to support the DELETE method.  Either you
 don't have those updated modules or I have a bug in one (or both) of
 them.

 I've tested it on my own account with both Basic and OAuth and
 delete_list is successful, so if you've got the correct Core and OAuth
 modules perhaps a stack trace would shed some light.

Last night I'd only added the Lists.pm module; after grabbing and
installing the complete package just now, the error has gone away.

Though it is on my radar, I haven't done any development with OAuth yet.

I'll try to get some more thorough testing done tonight.  Thanks for your help.

 Hi all,

 Sorry if this comes across as a newbie question.

Well guess it was a newbie thing - I didn't realize this was a simple
support question; I have not yet
come across this information in any documentation. My searches have
not been exhaustive, quite obviously.

My most sincere apologies for the noise.

 Of course it's supported. Just cast Sexus Magicus Level 12, and poof, that

Lol.  +1 Insightful

 Define on the net.

 If I'm ssh(-2)'d to my server at home, tunneling my HTTP content, forwarding
 all DNS requests to the SOCKS proxy Putty presents, how are anyone but
 myself and the SSH server going to know exactly what content I just pulled?

 (Obviously everything in front of the SSH server is likely unencrypted, but
 that's out of scope.)

Easy enough - anything that is stored (or passed-and-cached)
electronically outside of tcp/ip networks you control.  Ie. if one
sends a search query to service not under their control that search
string must also be accessible from devices not under their control.

Encryption's great and I use it where I can, but it's not foolproof.
Unfortunately that has been consistently proven throughout history.
Proving otherwise is the ideal case.

 orly?

 I was being (mostly) sarcastic previously.. I don't see a reason to
 have SSL for twitter search.. but now a serious question: are you
 saying that you can decrypt SSL session on-the-fly?  Should I stop
 making purchases with my credit cards online?

Hmm.  I would say no at this point.  I was only trying to draw
attention to the fact encryption rarely survives on a long-term basis.
 If encryption is unbreakable for the period you require, then for
your purposes it is completely valid.  I'm just not sure I believe in
the long term benefits of any particular scheme.
