mwclient was originally written by Bryan Tong Minh. It was maintained for many years by Dan Michael O. Heggø, with assistance from Waldir Pimenta. It is currently maintained by Marc Trölitzsch, Adam Williamson and Megan Cutrofello. The best way to get in touch with the maintainers is by filing an issue or a pull request.
Up-to-date documentation is hosted at Read the Docs. It includes a user guide to get started using mwclient, a reference guide, implementation and development notes.
