What's the best and most recent social authentication plugin for Django?

There are plenty of them out there but a lot of them are old - can anyone recommend a plugin which they recently implemented?

The only thing I really care about is gmail/yahoo, facebook and twitter are optional.

EDIT: To address the answer,

Confusion on using django socialauth

^ the author says there are newer forks, those are what I'm looking for.

django-social-auth by Matías Aguirre is an implementation which looks pretty active as a project, as of today.

According to the README it supports all major providers (and some contributed others), basic user data population and multiple social accounts association to single users.

Edit: django-social-auth is now called python-social-auth.

django-allauth by Raymond Penners is a viable alternative specifically for Django. It supports almost as many providers, and is also very active as a project.

That's kind of what's cool about github - it tracks forks for you and draws a cool little network graph. From that, you can easily find the most recently updated fork

Just click on the 'Network' button to see the graph.
