Everytime that I try to Retweet from choqok I receive a server error saying that it cannot parse the data.

Running from a Konsole window I receive the following debug message:

choqok(19549) TwitterApiMicroBlog::repeatPost:

Today I rebuild using the last svn snapshot and it solved the Retweet problem.

I can reproduce the problem. Since RT-ing is a crucial part of
tweeting, I would very much appreciate this bug to be fixed in the
upcoming stable release.
