Wow, it's a nasty one. I've been dragging the older python-telegram-bot dependency enough for it to become broken. Fixing this requires a pretty big overhaul of the existing code, so be patient.

Yeah, I thought the same. Don't worry...

If you have an architectural design for the new API, I can try to help implement something. It's been a while since I last implemented something in Python, but it'd be a nice opportunity for a side project.
