libusb-1.x VS openUsb

Have a few questions about libusb VS openusb

I'm the author of a project called Berry4all that allows tethering for Blackberries Via USB.

Cuurrently I'm using libusb-0.x but i'd like /need to migrate to either libusb1.x OR libopenusb ... but I'm not sure which to pick

Some of the things I need: - Linux support - Mac OSX support (need it to work and be able to packa开发者_开发技巧ge it) - Python bindings

Opinions on either and why pick one over the other.

I would go for libusb-1 because it seems architecturally simpler, more actively maintained, more portable and more mainstream than OpenUSB. Their webpage lists successful projects based on it, and a small comparison to OpenUSB you might find useful.
