Question thread #3

[pauamma]

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer.

I could use a project to work on, and I know something about OAuth - I've interacted with Twitter's OAuth implementation as a dev, and implemented the client-side bits of it from scratch with no library (which I did so that I knew how it worked; for anything other than local tools, I'd obviously use a library), so... I'm willing to help!

[edit: Which is to say, I implemented it without an OAuth-specific library. I used libraries for URI escaping, URI parsing, HMAC-SHA1 encoding and base64 encoding.]
