Talking about kitten, found an injured jaguar that was hit by a car last weekend when driving home.[/quote]Wow!
Im glad, living in a country where jaquars are only been seen in a zoo. :)
[/quote]I am sad that I live in a country where most species of animal can only be seen in a zoo, and not in the wild. That includes jaguars.

Yes and no,
if they are also seen in the wild, you have to take care where you are around, and might not just walk anywhere in the outside.... -

We're still getting a very high amount of API hits on the front end server. See graph:
!http://dl.dropbox.com/u/217336/cache-server-hits_0411.png!
The low level you see on the left is the normal request rate.
Those requests are now taken care of by the cache server only (giving 403s) so they don't affect the site performance. The requests never make it to the web server layer and below.
Vass has a new version of the plugin ready so as soon as that is tested and deployed I expect it to take a little while for the browsers out there to get updated and we will see the drop to normal traffic. As soon as we see that we will enable the API again.

In the wild you never see them even though they are around, when camping in the forest you can see their tracks because they sometimes follow you in circles. But never heard of someone being attacked by a jaguar afaik. Btw. the biggest risk here is to be killed by falling tree or simply getting lost :) -
I'm not sure about automatically
options->tools->extensions
click on "developer mode"
button "update extensions"or just reinstall it from here: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/mhbcdhmbdinbggoongcnmblnclloilbh

Greetings from a beach bungalow in San Diego :)

We're still seeing volumes of API traffic way above normal. It´s trending downwards though.
-
The stats are not going down as we have hoped, so I suggest we do a +1 on the API version and provide it on a new unblocked URL.
From http://developer.qt.nokia.com/qtapi/0/* to http://developer.qt.nokia.com/qtapi/1/*.
We would then stop /0/ in the firewall and consider it forever unavailable.
Yay or nay? :)

Andre, do you mean something like OAuth?
-
I don't know much about OAuth, so I would not know. What I mean is that as a developer working against the API, you would request a unique key to use for your application. You would append this key to your requests as an additional parameter. The API would only respond if the API key is valid, and give an error otherwise.
I think Google uses something like this to keep track of the use of their services. It can also be used to limit the number of requests for a specific application of the API.
