We certainly appreciated the efforts you contributed to the v1 version of our API Python library. As we had mentioned to you in our support exchanges, we realized our old Python library was not up to our standards, and that we had been working on a new client library - because this is such a large project with many working pieces, we were keeping it slightly under wraps to allow for flexibility in the release cycle.

That being said, we know many merchants will opt to stay in v1 of our API for some time, and your client library will be very much appreciated.

well to be honest that client library was written to address the shortcomings of the previous Python library, which didn't support Recurly.js (arguably the best part of Recurly), but the new Python client library does and my library wasn't completely finished yet. Even though I have to move some code on my project over, it frees me from having to finish writing that client library, which is honestly about as interesting as waiting for paint to dry so you can watch it chip. It's don't exactly wake up in the morning and think "I wonder what kind of XML I'll get to parse today".

I'm annoyed that I did a bunch of throwaway work that could have been easily avoided, but the API updates are a significant improvement and they solve a bunch of problems for me that I was previously forced to solve myself (especially the new support for multiple subscriptions), so it all comes out in the wash.
