iOS8 and OS X Yosemite, probably a silly question

I had a developer account a few years ago to mess around with Xcode in my spare time. The new iOS and OS look great, but I was wondering if having an iOS Developer account gives you access to OS X Yosemite and vice-versa (having Mac developer account grants you access to iOS8?).

I know these updates are all about platforms working as one—and, as such, this may be a stupid question— but I just wanted to check and see before I decided to go at it again.

The iOS developer account grants you access to Yosemite this time around. Not sure about vice versa (I will assume no).
 
I'm not 100% certain, however you can download Yosemite through the public beta program.

How? I'm in my portal and Yosemite is greyed out.

At work now without my portal login, but I was able to download it. Created a redemption code for the Mac App Store. And I am definitely only an iOS developer.

I seem to recall it was in the iOS8 section however, if that helps.
