Either/Or

This release resolves a major issue in the init subcommand (#36), fixes several argument-parsing bugs (#37), resolves a minor formatting issue in the JSON array emitter, and adds basic error handling and automatic retries (#38) for paged HTTPS requests. The number of automatic retries is currently three; this will be user-adjustable in a subsequent release.

Parler has survived far longer than we thought it would – thanks in part to a few very foolish cash investments from a few very wealthy individuals. Though we firmly believe that Parler's poor software architecture, security deficiencies, abysmal performance, and erratic leadership will ultimately doom their enterprise, it looks like they'll be hanging around for a while.

Therefore, we intend to prioritize and schedule a near-term major release containing a full suite of unit tests, an end-to-end testing framework, test coverage information, and fixes for any bugs that arise from this effort. We also intend to begin releasing minor versions on a more-frequent basis, both via Github and NPM. If you're interested in assisting with development, testing, and/or release engineering, please feel free to drop us a line on Github.

Thanks for your patience during this difficult time in American history.
