Hi there,

debajyotidatta commented 4 years ago

I am also curious about the same question! Hope you all continue to maintain this repository for a long time.

Hi,

The plan is to update IDs on here on a weekly basis (The plan is to update every Monday or latest Tuesday, as my ability to do some initial cleaning - e.g. dropping duplicates and quick data statistics - depends on computational resource availability). I'll be uploading the next batch of tweets tonight (up until 4/3). We'll be continuing to collect tweets and maintaining this repository for the foreseeable future.

That is great! Thanks a lot for the response. Just wanted to know that you all will continue to maintain this repository. There are quite a few repos now, but none of them actively are maintaining it. Glad you guys are maintaining at a weekly frequency.

Of course! I've just uploaded the newest batch of data - I'll be closing this issue, but please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.
