The Python SDK seems to have been removed from Github. https://github.com/facebook/python-sdk returns a 404.
Have they moved the development somewhere else, dropped support, or is this just a mistake? The developer site still links to Github (see https://developers.facebook.com/opensource/) but that doesn't really mean much.
Does anyone have a clone?
Edit
I realise the API is still available but that's not really the point. Lots of third party packages rely on the SDK (like django-socialregistration). Deleting the repository has broken all of these (since it's often a package requirement) which, in turn, breaks site deployments.

The Graph API is free to use, for all applicable use cases. Rate Limiting applies though, > developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/advanced/rate-limiting There is no way to “pay” or > otherwise get those limits raised for normal 3rd party apps.
PHP Code to Read Facebook DataThis code uses PHP file_get_contents() function to read Facebook data from server. This function will return JSON array which will be decoded to display to the user. <? php if (isset($_POST["submit"])) { $url = $_POST["profile_url"]; $facebook_data = file_get_contents($url .
You can get user data by using the Facebook Graph API if the user has given their permission to share their data and your app has the appropriate permissions to receive this data. This topic shows you how to make a single request for data and how to have a batch of requests in a single request.
To answer the clone question, yes:

Response From Facebook
The official response from Facebook is
We longer support or provide an official Facebook Python SDK. You can find several unofficial SDKs for Python, or you could use simple urllib.urlopen calls direct to the Graph API.
