Q: Why can't I use OpenID with CodePaste.NET?

Unfortunately, the CodePaste.NET web service API does not allow OpenID as an authentication method. As such, the only way to programmatically access the service is using the standard username/password authentication.

Q: Why did I get an error while communicating with Twitter?

You must be new to Twitter and its reliability problems. Go Google "fail whale." Twitter's not known for its uptime or stability.

Basically, if you have problems... try again later. Check to ensure that Twitter's actually up, isn't being flaky, and there isn't a problem where you've got something blocked by a firewall. If it's not being blocked, give it a day. If it's still not back, go look in the DevExpress message log, grab the error information, and file an issue. We'll see if we can't fix you up.
