Well it’s been a while, but I’ve just pushed a 3.0 release of Keyring.

Keyring is a generalized framework for WordPress which handles authentication with, and authenticated requests to remote services. It provides a set of predefined “Services” which describe how to communicate with a collection of popular platforms, and also makes it easy for you to plug into that framework and define your own Services for other systems.

This version includes a bunch of improvements and compatibility updates, including all sorts of contributions from other folks. There are a lot of fixes and tweaks that have come back into the project as part of it being used on WordPress.com, and as part of the hiring process at Automattic.

Here’s the full changelog:

• CHANGE: Default branch has been renamed to trunk to match WordPress projects. Update your refs.
• Enhancement: BREAKING: Removed delicious service (they have shut down completely). Props @sanmai.
• Enhancement: BREAKING: LinkedIn now uses OAuth2. Props @glendaviesnz.

• Enhancement: Added a Google Drive Service definition, props @scruffian.
• Enhancement: Trim spaces off API keys etc to avoid mistakes when copy/pasting. Props @kbrown9.
