Is python a stable platform for facebook development?

api, facebook, python

Solution

The updated location of pyfacebook is on github. Plus, as arstechnica well explains:

PyFacebook is also very easy to extend when new Facebook API methods are introduced. Each Facebook API method is described in the PyFacebook library using a simple data structure that specifies the method's name and parameter types.

so, even should you be using a pyfacebook version that doesn't yet implement some brand-new thing you need, it's easy to add said thing, as Ryan Paul shows here regarding some of the stream functions (back in April right after they were launched).

Problem

I'm trying to build my first facebook app, and it seems that the python facebook (pyfacebook) wrapper is really out of date, and the most relevant functions, like stream functions, are not implemented. Are there any mature python frontends for facebook? If not, what's the best language for facebook development?
