Previous versions have a compatibility issue with OAuth since May 13th.
Projects requiring OAuth support need to migrate to this version.

Compatibility notes:
- retirement of ExtendedUser class
Following methods return User, or List instead of ExtendedUser, or List:
getUserDetail()
verifyCredentials()
updateProfile()
updateProfileColors()
getBlockingUsers()
getAuthenticatedUser()

The method signatures of TwitterListener and TwitterAdapter are changed accordingly.

"ExtendedUser" and "UserWithStatus" class are retired(deleted) since the API returns extended user information with all methods.
Use "User" class instead.

- Streaming API support
Now Twitter4J supports the Streaming API which is in alpha test phase.

http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Streaming-API-Documentation
