Tweepy 1.4 released

[Josh Roesslein]

Hello all,

Tweepy 1.4 has been released and can be grabbed from the cheeseshop
(PyPi) or downloaded from Github.
Here is the change log for this release:

+ Added people search API method. API.search_users()
+ Streaming API
- Moved parameters into POST body to prevent "head too big" errors.
- Stream can be run either asynchronously (threaded) or
synchronously (blocks main thread).
By default Stream will run in sync. mode. To change this pass
into the stream
method 'async=True'. Example:
s = Stream('test', 'password', MyListener())
s.sample(async=True) # threaded mode
s.filter(track=['pizza']) # synch./blocking mode
- Listener now has a "on_data" method which can be overridden to
manually handle the
raw stream data.
+ tweepyshell
- allow using getpass for more secure password collection
new usage: tweepyshell <username> [password] <-- optional now
- enable debug mode with '-d' flag
+ API
- retweet() method now works correctly
- Added local trends method: trends_available() and trends_location()
- send_direct_message() now accepts either a user/screen_name/user_id
for recipient of DM
- update_status() added 'source' parameter for Identi.ca
- create_list() and update_list() added 'description' parameter
+ tweepy.debug() enables httplib debug mode
+ New Sphinx documentation (Thanks Kumar!) in doc/
+ User model
- Fix timeline() to return correct timeline
- Remove mentions() method

This release is mostly bug fixes. If you find any issues please be
sure to report them and I will look into them.
Thank you for supporting and using Tweepy. Enjoy!
