Oops, that was a bug that I reintroduced during some code cleanup. I 
have fixed it in git with commit cee81ff:
https://github.com/residuum/PuRestJson/commit/cee81ff94d044caec1c722cb47b54bdd416ef592

Feel free to post any bugs at https://github.com/residuum/PuRestJson/issues

Right now, I am merging the helpful patches from Hans-Christoph Steiner 
and writing compilation docs in the Github wiki, cleaning out edges etc. 
When that is done, I will tag it 0.6, and make some binary packages.

After that, I will start with OAuth. The problem with OAuth is not so 
much a programming problem, but more of a design problem. What should be 
done in the Pd object, what is the responsibility of the user, how to 
deal with using one object to get data from different servers, how is 
OAuth really implemented at each provider, etc.

I will start off with some ideas and then post some stuff in the Github 
wiki.
