Community Resources

Discuss how to work with the Yahoo! Web Services and other APIs using .NET on the ydn-dotnet mailing list. Please note that this is not a general .NET programming questions list; try to keep your questions focused to discussion about the Yahoo! APIs.

We also provide individual lists for each of the web services and APIs we support; your questions are always welcome there as well. See the Yahoo! Developer Network Community page for more information on these mailing lists.
