New issue 6 by israel.herraiz: Add support for Laconica servers
http://code.google.com/p/pytwerp/issues/detail?id=6

I have added laconi.ca support to pyTwerp. Laconi.ca [1] is an open
source project that implements a Twitter-like system. It has a REST
API that is compatible with Twitter.

The main difference between Laconi.ca and Twitter is that Laconi.ca
sites may be private, and so authentication is needed even to retrieve
the public timeline.

The attached patch adds a command line option to set the URL of the
REST API (if not set, it is http://twitter.com by default), and
changes a little the URLs to make them according to the API. It also
authenticates for all the petitions (including the public timeline as
I say above).

The configuration "remembers" the last URL used. It is the same
behavior that with the username and password. I guess that it could be
a good idea to add support for multiple accounts.

I have verified that pytwerp works both with Twitter and Laconi.ca
sites with this patch.

The patch has been obtained against the latest available sources in
the SVN repository.
