18:29 < lool> kees: Hey I'm happy to promote python-oauth unless you'd like to 
          do a security review; it's relatively small and trivial python lib 
          but it's parsing data from the net 
          https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408878
18:42 < james_w> lool, kees: python-oauth implement OAuth 1.0, not 1.0a, so is 
          vulnerable to what can be a very serious session fixation attack
18:42 < james_w> it's not really a "full of buffer overflows" problem, but 
          something to consider
18:43 < kees> james_w: sounds like a reason to reject it to me.
18:43 < kees> lool: what needs it?
18:44 < james_w> kees: Ubuntu One, the new python-launchpadlib
18:44 < james_w> (the old one embeds a copy :-/)

That's a really serious issue but I don't know whether Ubuntu One or
launchpadlib are affected

** Changed in: python-oauth (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Incomplete
