No donut for you. came out. Anyone know what was happening?

This will make your life much easier and more organized! *[ Tip ] If sandbox is ever offline...* Yes, sandbox is offline sometimes because it's very new code and sometimes it fails or becomes a little slow. If that's the case, please use Prod Sandbox as an alternative (prod.sandbox.orkut.com). You don't have to sign up for prod sandbox separately (your sandbox signup works for prod sandbox too).

There is no link to it from the interface (there will be soon), so bookmark this URL or memorize it to have it handy. However, you can only access it *AFTER* logging into sandbox (step 2). If you try to go there directly without logging in first, you will get a 404 error as if the page didn't exist. If this is your first time developing an orkut app, please make sure to read at least the OpenSocial Tutorial for Orkuthttp://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/orkut/articles/tutorial/tutorial.html, but please bear in mind that the app testing/submission workflow written there is *out of date* (use this one instead). *4.

After that, you have to reload the page in order for it to work. If you don't do that, your newly added app will not show up. Just to be clear, this step only adds the application to your developer profile so you can run it and test it, this does NOT cause the application to be published.

It looks like your XML was not live (or not reachable from our servers) for more than 3 weeks. As a result your game was taken down. We could see that your XML is now available and we could successfully restore your application on Orkut directory.
