Brian, there is no TLS or root CA certificates on this platform. No browser. No X11. No screen or keyboard for that matter. On May 14, 11:13 am, Brian Smith br...@briansmith.org wrote: Mr Blog wrote: For example, the current 'tweet' code binary is 18K bytes.  If you can add oAuth in 100K

Thanks. As I note, that is a non-trivial project/barrier. FWIW, I'm putting together a generic service for this application, where a user can oAuth to the site and then create proxy credentials that can be used to tweet etc. http://www.supertweet.net/ Feedback welcome. On May 12, 7:35 am, John

Hi Glenn, FWIW, the application and platform is extremely small and lightweight - there is nothing as powerful or huge as 'curl' there. It is all raw C code, stripped down libraries, etc. measured in K-bytes, not Megabytes, to say nothing of Gigabytes. For example, the current 'tweet' code

oAuth is a big burden for microcontroller based devices like this - OAuthcalypse will probably simply kill this app.  It seems like way too much overhead to push oAuth code into this little chip.  oAuth alone would probably exceed all the rest of the application code on the device combined.

Why not have the controller proxy through a full-featured webserver that can oAuth in to Twitter? -John Kalucki http://twitter.com/jkalucki Infrastructure, Twitter Inc. On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 2:03 AM, glenn gillen gl...@rubypond.com wrote: oAuth is a big burden for microcontroller based
