Worked on Yowsup to fix it code to send whatsapp message to bulk.

yowsup is a python library that enables building applications that can communicate with WhatsApp users. The project started as the protocol engine behind Wazapp for Meego and OpenWA for BB10. Now as a standalone library it can be used to power any custom WhatsApp client.

yowsup-cli-2.0 will focus on the development of yowsup-cli in Linux (specifically Ubuntu) environment. Other installation methods listed in this document are in legacy mode.

During maintenance of yowsup, several projects have been spawned in order to support different features that get introduced by WhatsApp. Some of those features are not necessarily exclusive to WhatsApp and therefore it only made sense to maintain some parts as standalone projects:

• python-axolotl: Python port of libsignal-protocol-java, providing E2E encryption
• consonance: WhatsApp's handshake implementation using Noise Protocol
• dissononce: A python implementation for Noise Protocol Framework
