Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Package name : cawbird

Description : Cawbird is a fork of the Corebird Twitter client
from Baedert, which became unsupported after Twitter disabled the
streaming API. Cawbird works with the new APIs and includes a few fixes
and modifications that have historically been patched in to IBBoard's
custom Corebird build on his personal Open Build Service account.
I personally able to use repository[1] from openbuild service for my Sid
installed machine with little adjustment, it will be great if cawbird
available on official repository
