Description
The twitter push is going to break in a few weeks and there will be a lot of frustrated Elgg users out there. Since the Twitter Service plugin was distributed with Elgg, it is really a good idea to provide a replacement that uses OAuth (whether back ported from 1.8 or an updated Twitter Service plugin).
Ideally it could be included with Elgg 1.7.2

It is in trunk. I don't know if there are any plans to include it with the 1.7 branch.

- Milestone changed from Elgg 1.7.2 to Elgg 1.8
- Severity changed from minor to major
The 1.8 Twitter services plugin still has some bugs that we're just discovering and the transition between the 1.7 twitter services plugins to the 1.8 plugin is still highly untested. It looks like Twitter pushed back the oauth deadline to August 31st, so let's release 1.7.2 with the current implementation and plan full oauth for 1.7.3 / 1.8.

(In [svn:7018]) Fixes #2202. Backported parts of 1.8's Twitter service to 1.7 for oAuth. We'll need to selectively merge the bug fixes and improvements I've made back to 1.8. Updated The Wire to use the new twitter services plugin hooks.
I understand this is in svn now, so has it been completed?
