First of al I like a library that claims web2py compatibility that's a very good sign! Does social-auth support a common API (aka janrain) to access social info or it is just the auth part? For the auth part we already cover already much of it, the dying OAuth1.0a and the now stable OAuth2.0,we have also backward compatibility with the broken facebook implementation. Maintenance is a relative issue, since these protocols should be rather stable.
