Thank you for Twitter gem. It is very helpful.

I was wondering why in retweet(id, options = {}) method you say "Note: The authenticating user must be the author of the specified status."

In Twitter you can retweet statuses from users you don't follow and I think that in Twitter API docs they don't say anithing about this. So how can I do this from my app?

Another question: for Twitter all retweets made from Twitter gem client are made from same user? if it's true, how can I make an app where some different users can retweet same tweet?

Thank you
