Python Pownce Library

Back on the 13th I posted about some work I had done to figure out how the Pownce API works, this was all part of a Python module I was working on and, at the time, I didn’t want to post the code because, after all, the API was still hidden.

Well, I probably should have. :)

Later in the week I heard on Pownce about a Python library being worked on by Clint and when I read his post I thought immediately that we should probably get together and compare notes. Later Phillipe also sent some emails and then Clint sent some and pretty soon we had a huge CC list running and it started getting really complicated. :)

So much activity started happening amongst a crowd of interested API coders that I think the Pownce folks realized that if they didn’t start putting some “official” markings we were going to just run with it.

So by the end of yesterday a new google group was formed, PownceAPI, and after some conversations the decision was made to scrap our individual code.google sites and create a common PownceAPI code.google site and have sections for each language module.

All this in a matter of days – talk about Internet Time! Hmm, I’m going to need a new category now.
