Simple question - I have dabbled with the awesome scribe library before but am now thinking of committing to this for an oauth-dependent production grails app. Is there enough community support to keep this library going with all the API changes the likes of Facebook seem to be doing these days? I'd hate to have to revert to something spring security for oauth but, in the same sentence, would not want to have to keep customising scribe for my own once API changes are released by providers.
I ask this because the core code (which is probably perfectly fine at the moment) is about 4 years old. Is this project here to stay?
With the exception of hearing from the Scribe team it's nearly impossible to answer this question with a simple yes/no.
However, I think it's better to look at it from this perspective to arrive at a valid answer.
Given the fact you do have access to the source, and you do have other options I'd say it doesn't really matter if it's going to stick around because you have options for the future.
Of course, the answer depends on your own abilities and risk assessment, but I think it would be safe to say you can arrive at an answer.
Hope this helps.
