While Scratch may look like a children's programming platform at first, look closer and you'll find a large community of programmers looking to use the simple tools to make advanced projects. I've been getting into Scratch thanks to griffpatch, who is the number 1 Scratch submitter, and it really shows how many people use the site. Me myself, I use pronoundb, and getting into Scratch made me wonder if the integration was considered.

I'm not opposed to the support of any platform, so long that it is technically feasible in a relatively "sane" manner. Scratch does not seem have native support for the OAuth protocol, other than what appears to be a semi-official-but-not-too-official thing. This doesn't look ideal...

There would also need to be an incentive to support the extension module and keep it up to date; while Scratch doesn't appear to be a fast-moving platform compared to other ones such as Twitter, it will require some minimal maintenance which I may not be able to do: I don't use Scratch nor have enough free time to regularly check if the integration still works :/

If the OAuth support available turns out to be good enough and safe enough, and that someone is willing to work on it, why not. But I will probably not try and do it myself.
