===> CATS Developer Support Programs
Two programs: Certified and Commercial
Developer Applications may be requested through:
CATS - APPLICATIONS
Software Administration
CBM
1200 Wilson Drive
West Chester, PA 19380
OR Phone: 215-431-9180
UUCP: {rutgers,uunet,allegra} !cbmvax!brenda
Both programs include our AmigaMail developer newsletter,
hardware discounts, and a coupon good towards CATS support
materials. New members also get a discount towards BIX
initial signup fee. The Commercial program also includes
direct CATS phone support, access to the closed amiga.com
conference on BIX, and often earlier access to new software
and equipment. To qualify for Certified, you must be
developing a salable product for the Amiga, or be the head of
an established user group, the representative of a university
department, a publisher, or a high-profile individual in the
computer industry. To qualify for Commercial, you must have
existing software or hardware products on the market. To
preserve the quality of Commercial support, acceptance to
the Commercial program is limited.
Our Certified program currently costs $50/yr + $25 initial
application fee. The Commercial program is $450/yr + $50
initial application fee.
===> Workbench and Includes Licenses
For developers who wish to commercially distribute their product
on a disk containing files or programs from the Workbench disk,
a Workbench license is available. You can request a Workbench
license from
CATS - LICENSES
(at same address as above)
The current Workbench license is a 1 year contract and the fee
for the license is $100/yr. There is also and Includes license
available ($25/yr). Do not send pre-payment for licenses.
Payment will only be accepted after you have read, signed, and
returned the license. Licenses are currently available for
1.3 Workbench and 1.3 Includes. Licensing is only available
to sole distributors with full control over the labeling and
packaging of their products. (ie - there is no licensing
available for any type of freely redistributable software).
===> BIX - Amiga Developer's Conferences
CATS, CBM and Amiga engineers, and some Los Gatos alumni provide
technical support for developers in the amiga.dev, amiga.com,
and amiga conferences on BIX (the Byte Information eXchange).
The amiga and amiga.dev conferences are open conferences.
Amiga.com is a closed conference for developers in our Commercial
program. A new closed amiga.update conference allows developers
in our Certified program to access the pre-release software
update listings in the amiga.com area.
If you are a registered Amiga developer, BIXmail your
name, [company], and developer number to cscheppner on BIX
for admittance to the appropriate closed conference.
===> "Kickstart Journal" (June 87, Ariadne Software)
This book is a compilation of articles from "Kickstart", a
U.K. Amiga developer's newsletter published by Ariadne Software.
Included is a very informative article by Tim King called
"ABC AmigaDOS". This article includes much information not
covered in the AmigaDOS manuals.
The Kickstart Journal must be ordered directly from Ariadne
Software, and may be billed to Visa, Mastercard, or American
Express. The cost in U.S. dollars is currently approximately
$30, including Air Mail shipping costs.
