Hey all,

I was just wondering if there's any intention of implementing anything like oauth or any way for users to easily grant an app access to the api via their own api key.

Right now there looks like 2 options - use your own api key (which is more likely to cause request limit issues) or ask the user to provide an api key. It'd be nice if there were a way for a user to grant an app access to the api, like OAuth.

Cheers

Matt
