Microsoft Partner

[scooby]

quick question, got a tender running at the minute, and one tendering supplier says that part of the MS partnering programme you have to build the software to be compatible with MS OS. is this true?

reason for asking is that another supplier is trying to factor in charges for validation post dev to show each product (output) developed on their solution is compatible with MS OS...

No idea what you're getting at - please re-phrase.

The MS Partner programme doesn't stipulate anything about making apps work with MS apps. But you can't use any of the software you get throug being a Partner in a production environment and your'e not allowed to resell it.

Helps? Maybe, maybe not.
