[twitter-dev] Schedule for API call rate increases with oAuth?

2010-04-26 Thread znmeb
What's the latest schedule for increasing the allowed API call rate for oAuth 
users? That seems to have been lost in the shuffle. 

Also, is there any advantage to xAuth over the desktop PIN oAuth scheme (for a 
desktop application)? I'm putting together a proposal and can't see any real 
advantage to it on the desktop, especially since I have the oAuth code done, 
thanks to Marc Mims' Net::Twitter. ;-)

unclear - we're actively working with our infrastructure and operations
teams on capacity planning specifically so we can increase the rate limits.

personally, i would -love it-, if everybody just used the oauth web workflow
so that none of you even see a user's username/password.  that would make
the web more secure.  i'm even soliciting suggestions on what we could do to
make the web workflow better.  i understand, however, that the PIN workflow
can be off putting for some users.

so, implementing oAuth instead of xAuth would make me happy - but i doubt
that's a motivation for most developers.

There sure is for TTYtter. But that's not a typical desktop app.

just to clarify, however - oauth calls on api.twitter.com get 350/hr,
whereas basic auth calls get 150/hr.  so, that's one increase already...
