Another maintenance-related question - are things completely back up
and running? I'm asking because I'm seeing inconsistent behavior.
In my servers logs, I'm seeing a number of timeouts when talking to
Twitter. Also, when I try to run curl commands from my servers to
Twitter, they are _extremely_ slow, sometimes timing out. Some of my
servers are systems that regularly communicate with Twitter while
others rarely do so.
However, when I run the same curl command from my desktop, it runs in
a snap.
I don't recall seeing anything like this in the past, where there
would be such a consistent difference between the two environments.

Eric,
I was right next to Alex when he made the fix for Issue 300 and I
remember seeing it deployed. I'll check into it.
Thanks,
Doug

Yeah, I filed 300 a while ago and it was marked as fixed, so I was
surprised when I saw HTML.

Any reason the API is serving up an HTML page instead of the normal
error XML?

@Michael: Yes. The OAuth server makes use of the twitter.com web
servers as well as the database backing store which is the focus of
the maintenance.

Hi all.
To clarify: the site will be down. twitter.com and
search.twitter.com will fail to serve content while the back end
changes are being made.
Thanks,

That is usually what "site maintenance" means...
In my experience, a maintenance window means that the site could be
down for any or all of that period. The way Doug wrote it, I'd
imagine that they expect the site will only be down for a short
time, but they're reserving an hour in case it takes longer for
unanticipated reasons.
We shall see...
