What is the different between gdata.client and gdata.service inside gdata-python-client?

Question

When i was reading both, they seems targeting the same thing and written by the same author. So what is the different between those two?

Thanks

The service.py module was used for a v1 implementation of the library, which was greatly improved by introducing client.py for a v2 implementation. Most (if not all) of the remaining GData APIs use only the client implementation.

From the source of client.py:

"""Provides a client to interact with Google Data API servers.

This module is used for version 2 of the Google Data APIs. The primary class
in this module is GDClient.

  GDClient: handles auth and CRUD operations when communicating with servers.
  GDataClient: deprecated client for version one services. Will be removed.
