Bug Description

I was trying to get some language data using the new languages API, but I didn't seem to be able to.

Here is what I tested:

>>> from launchpadlib.launchpad import Launchpad
>>> cachedir = "/home/dpm/.launchpadlib/cache/"
>>> launchpad = Launchpad.login_anonymously('just testing', 'production', cachedir)
>>> langs = launchpad.languages
>>> print len(langs)
383
>>> for lang in langs:
... print lang.code
...
>>>

I could neither get the list of all languages nor access specific language entries.

hm....

I have tested on Karmic and it is working.

Since your session already recognized there are 383 languages, it should be working,

Also the JSON output looks good on all API versions:
https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/+languages
https://launchpad.net/api/beta/+languages
https://launchpad.net/api/devel/+languages

here is my output.
----

>>> langs[0]
<language at https://api.edge.launchpad.net/beta/+languages/ab>
>>> langs[0].code
u'ab'
>>> for lang in langs:
... print lang.code
...
ab
ace
ach
ada
ALL_OTHER_LANGUAGES

lazr.restful hides objects from results unless the user holds launchpad.View over the object. The default security adapter is ViewByLoggedInUser, so anonymous users won't be able to see ILanguages. You need a ViewLanguage adapter inheriting AnonymousAuthorization.

I can also confirm that with authenticaded access the output is fine.

Here's the output on Lucid:

>>> cachedir = "/home/dpm/.launchpadlib/cache/"
>>> from launchpadlib.launchpad import Launchpad
>>> launchpad = Launchpad.login_with('just testing', 'edge', cachedir)
>>> langs = launchpad.languages
>>> for lang in langs[:10]:
... print lang.english_name
