Hello all,
could somebody point me in the right direction with setting up the
scoop deamon for the external account
feature.
I am relatively new to python. As I understood the scoop thing is
needed in order to get the external account feature working.
Thanks for your help.
best regards rudi

Rudi,
yes it's right that the scoop deamon is required to run for the current
external accounts feature to work.
That being said, the scoop Python scaper technology is being phased out
and will not be part of future PA releases.
The External Accounts feature will be implemented using the more stable
WS APIs that all major Services now supply (which were not available
back when the scoop was written)
Sadly I can't give a clear timeline of of when the new external Accounts
will surface, but I can tell you that the scoop based technology is not
being worked on or maintened anymore.
Additionally, the services it did support have since changed their
structure, which means that scoop is not likely to be useful in the
state it is in now, even if you activate it...
I hope that helps a bit to clarif things :)

we're no longer supporting that feature
scraping is uncool - and all the scraping code is broken
