Hey,

I am a researcher interested in the growth of Twitter and as such
would very much like to:

1. Be able to obtain the date at which a user joined the network. Is
this information available through the API (I couldn't find it in the
python-twitter documentation).?

2. Obtain the friend list of a user without having the user's
password, is this possible?

Thank you very much for any help.
