Yay! Thanks a lot.

I can think of two reasons why it could be beneficial to fork it on the Adium account: 1. everyone on the team can easily modify it, 2. they might appreciate our official endorsement of the framework (especially with all the improvements you made).

No objections

Good idea! I'll try to help though I have to say I only use a very small part of the Twitter functionality.

Seems like it's a bit large of a dependency for a service hardly anyone uses. Plus, someone would need to maintain it and I feel like we should ship services we are committed to maintaining (apart from those in lib purple).
