 * Good upstream maintenance.
 * The package is maintained well in Ubuntu

All looks good, but few modification in the package is needed:

Some comments on the package:
- we try to have in main all python package using dh_python2. It's basically for this one add the build-dep and --with python2 in debian/rules I guess. See http://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2
- debian/copyright sould follow the DEP5 format http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5/

Small and stupid question: any reason the credential is in the packaging?

Please, reset the bug as triaged once those modifications are done.

[Gary Ekker (gekker)]

Ken or An, can one of you respond to Didier's questions?

[An Yang (euroford)]

Hi Ken,

If you do not have enough time, I'm glad to maintain it.
But I think import it to gwibber mainstream is the best choice, maintain one package less, you can do more.

[Ken VanDine (ken-vandine)]

I just uploaded 0.8.1-0ubuntu2

 * converted to dh_python2
 * dep5 formated debian/copyright

The credential is in the packaging to keep it separate from the upstream source, twitter forces this and this plugin is just following that as a guide.

acked then, promoting
