uaing HTTP Basic Authentication with VB

2008-12-02 Thread jpdenoyer

Hi there, My VB knowledge is very old and very poor, and my .NET is only slightly better. Take a look at: request.PreAuthenticate = True request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(UserName, Password) I could easily be wrong. Take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system

The updated estimate I've just received from our ops guys is "more than 15 minutes and less than 12 hours". They have to restore from a nightly database backup. Said backups are quite large, and take some time to get through. Thanks for your patience. On Tue, Dec 2, 2008 at 18:39, Yu-Shan Fung

Hi, Our app (mrtweet.net), which has been whitelisted (@mrtweet) since a couple of weeks back, has suddenly began seeing the "rate limit exceeded" error since around 3:45pm (pacific) today. Was there a change in policy, or do I have to reapply for whitelisting? Thanks! Yu-Shan.

As per http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=173 we'll be changing the /account/verify_credentials method to return the representation of the authenticated user. Because some applications depend on the contents of this response, we're delaying this change until December 10th, 2008

Thanks for the update! For those of us doing current development with the API, will the current version be kept around for a while (as a legacy version I guess) so that we may continue development as the new API is being rolled out? Or will it be a cut-over situation when the new API is released?
