GAM 2.5 Released

• GAM handles and retries errors consistently and provides nice error messages. Long running GAM processes like "gam all users" should be much stabler now. Death to the 1000/Unknown errors! This involved some major changes to the Google API calls so if you run into problems, try downgrading to 2.3.1 and see if they go away. Be sure to submit bug reports!
• GAM now checks for new versions automatically once a week and prompts you to update. If you don't like automatic update checking or you're running GAM as a scheduled process that shouldn't be paused, you can create a file called noupdatecheck.txt in the same folder as gam.py or gam.exe and update checking will be disabled.
• New parameters for gam create user and gam update user
• New parameters for gam print group: owners, members and settings
• GAM now works for delegated admins with user read/create/update/delete API rights
• gam update group add owner now only adds the user as a group owner, not a member (Google Group member and owner status are independant of each other)
• gam update group add member no longer revokes user's owner rights if they have them
• gam info group now shows owners who are not a member of the group
• gam now works around the group settings "Backend Error" by making an HTTP request to the groups website. This workaround may cease to work if performed on more than a few hundred groups at a time.
• moving large numbers of users to an Organization is now more reliable and is performed 25 users at a time.
• gam print users aliases now makes only 1 API call to retrieve all user aliases
• New commands gam oauth info and gam oauth revoke allow further OAuth token management
• gam info domain now shows the unique customer id

GAM is made possible and maintained by the work of Dito.
