Open Source in Government

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the keep-pushing-further dept.

A reader writes: "There is a feature running on NF about a conference this October. More information can be found on the conference website." It's worth pointing that despite the fact that the conference is two days long, the organizers have asked for material submissions to be included in the conference handbook. So, if you've got some materials/thoughts, start polishing them up.

    Xbox Registered Developer Program

    The Xbox Registered Developer Program is designed to allow established game developers access to Xbox hardware and support in order to familiarize themselves with the architecture, tailor existing tools and technologies to take advantage of the unique features, and to be able to bid for and secure development projects for the Xbox console. Should your company be accepted into the program, you will be allowed access to development tools and passive technical support in form of the Xbox Central Web site and newsgroups. You may also be invited to participate in various technical sessions and seminars we hold over the course of the year.

    Key Points
    Applications for entry to the Registered Developer Program may be requested by emailing a request using one of the following links:

    * For developers in North and South America, and Asia outside of Japan: NADev@xbox.com
    * For developers in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand: EUDev@xbox.com

    Please include contact information and a brief description of your company.

    Applying developers will be required to execute a non-disclosure agreement with Microsoft prior to being considered for the program.

    If accepted, the developer will be allowed to obtain no more than two (2) Xbox Development Kit licenses, subject to the terms of the Microsoft XDK License Agreement.

    Developer support under this program is limited to access to Web based information and materials, newsgroups access, and may include invitations to participate in Xbox technical seminars.

    NOTE: Acceptance into the Xbox Registered Developer Program in no way implies any endorsement by Microsoft of the developer or their work, and does not guarantee approval of the work as an authorized Xbox title by Microsoft. NO XBOX SOFTWARE PRODUCT(S) MAY BE PUBLISHED, OR DISTRIBUTED TO END USERS, EXCEPT BY A LICENSED PUBLISHER PURSUANT TO AN XBOX DEVELOPMENT KIT AND XBOX PUBLISHER LICENSE AGREEMENT EXECUTED BY MICROSOFT.
