Hi all,
We launched our OAuth code to production yesterday with employee-
only access to check for any problems that didn't show up during our
testing. We've been running it through it's paces and fully plan to
have it open to the closed beta group by next week. If you didn't hear
back from Alex and I don't worry, we're working to expand the beta
once things are a bit more stable. As part of a company meeting today
I presented OAuth to the people who haven't been working on it via a
demo app I wrote … it was exciting times to see this run on
production. I think of the application developers on this list as an
extension of our team so I don't want to wait until next week to send
you the documentation. I wrote up a quick how-to sort of thing on the
wiki about writing a very simple OAuth app for Ruby on Rals. Check it
out at http://bit.ly/api-oauth-ruby.
With any luck we can add some more examples and things during this
beta period, most notably in PHP since that seems to be the majority
of the questions on the list.
Thanks;
— Matt Sanford
