Timstamp sync

Hi,

https://api.twitter.com/1/help/test.json allow developpers to make a HEAD request on this url to synchronize the clock with your servers. This url is now deprecated with 1.1 so how to do this in 1.1 with unauthorized request (because when you make the first call on https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token, you don’t have a token but you need a good timestamp) ?

Thanks.

This is a good point… help/test is used as a bit of crutch in uncertain circumstances. You can still issue a request to that endpoint in 1.1 to get a 400 back which will still contain the server time in the Date field but I’ll see what can be done to better formalize this.
