Sorry If I am posting in wrong place, but when I try to login to dev.meta.stackoverflow.com today, I got password protected page and looks like previous password is not valid anymore.

If you look on that password page, it says:

Thank you for participating in the private API beta! We're now starting the public beta - you can find more information on http://stackapps.com.

The dev.meta.stackoverflow.com site is no longer active. This is the new location for API related subjects.

You should have goten an email notifying you of this.

I see your company doesn't score particularly highly on the Joel Test :) – Chacha102 May 20 '10 at 4:05
Yeah, even this new site, after I browsing 4 or 5 clicks popup comes out and saying that "site is unknown, click OK to contine, everything will be logged" or something like that, I was need to tunnel it through one of my proxy now. :( – YOU May 20 '10 at 4:11
I wish we could hire all the great programmers trapped behind companies like that. :( – Jeff Atwood♦ May 20 '10 at 4:47

@S.Mark - Sorry to hear about your company. Can't really imagine how stupid a netadmin would have to be to think "blocking HTTPS is a good idea" – Mitch Dempsey May 20 '10 at 5:34
@webdestroya, ah actually, they didn't completely block the https protocol, they hijack their certificate with the help of BlueCoat devices, and block most of the https websites. And I still don't know how to tunnel https into http, so currently just sufferings. – YOU May 20 '10 at 6:14
@Chacha102 I would remove "grant access" stuff on dev.meta.stackoverflow.com. – systempuntoout May 20 '10 at 6:42

@S.Mark There should be a list of companies with the Joel score IMO. Sorry, off topic...but just sayin'. – TheHurt May 20 '10 at 6:47
