Feature Request: Support of GNU Social/Statusnet

[annando]

GNU Social (formerly knows as statusnet) is a distributed social network. For example it is used for https://quitter.se

GNU Social is using nearly the same API like Twitter, (version 1.0) so it wouldn't be much work to make it compatible. The two most significant changes are:

1. Login via username and password. (No OAuth)
2. The API path has to be make configurable.

There are some more changes, for example GNU Social has a configurable character limit. But these would be changes that could be done in a second step.

I'm a developer of Friendica: https://github.com/friendica/friendica

Friendica is using a Twitter like API as well (with the support of entities and some stuff from version 1.1), so it would be helpful for friendica users as well.

Nice. I like this idea. I'll look into it.
