Here's a page for each of you to request a set of developer keys:

In theory, it's all possible - it's just about giving access to the right parts of the database. I'm starting with importing data though, as a few people have talked about uploading their training.

I've created a simple example for you to test out. It just grabs a list of threads.

Here's the client-side code:

http://www.fetcheveryone.com/demo/api_example.0.1.zip

There are two files - a small object with methods that will request a token for you, and execute a GET request. You'll need to stick your key and secret into that. And example.php just illustrates some params for you.

PS a token lasts for 60s.
PPS if you spam the server with lots of requests, Apache will kick you out for a bit. So don't :-)

All feedback gratefully received. Once the mechanism is good, then adding more request types is fairly straightforward by comparison. I'm off for a run in a min, but when I'm back, I will be working on the code that will allow you to supply data, rather than just request it.

I've got as far as downloading them :) Probably won't have time to play until Monday though, and will start by translating them into something else (python/requests, specifically).

No problems, working fine for me (in Python).

Er. No other feedback. Top stuff :)
