Hi,
I built an application with Answers API and submitted through Yahoo! Gallery on weekend, but I haven’t seen that showing up.

Does it need some reviewing process?
My application is at http://www.zroorz.com/allabout.php
Could you check for me? thanks.

Cool. Thanks for the info. I’m gonna come back here for updates. :)

One more question, it says some APIs are “non-commercial use” and some are not. Which category does Answers API fall into?

For the Answers API,
if I retrieve data and put the questions and answers on my webpage.
Is there any legal issue (like copyright issue?)?

thanks,
pzk

Philipp:

The getQuestion call will return answers (as strange as that sounds). Just think of answers always being attached to a question.

Nice, but are answers missing from the API? Is it just showing the questions plus link?
