Well, finding your site SuperTweet.net today was a great find for me!
So I hope it doesn't go away any time soon. And I will be donating to
your cause shortly.
I updated my perl code using Net::Twitter to do oAuth - but it didn't
work right. That's because Net::Twitter has 12+ perl module

I appreciate the response, Ryan.
I'll say that it's a bummer to find out about this in that way.
Twitter made a big deal about how Basic Auth was being shut off, so
finding out that there were exceptions like this is confusing and
disconcerting.
No matter the intent, it is hard to feel respected
I would love to see Twitter implement essentially the http://SuperTweet.net

Unequal applications of the rules. Happens all the time. Months after
you've disabled something at the request of Twitter, you find well-
known services that do exactly the s
