	I recently received in the mail a letter from Commodore saying that
my Certified Developer status is about to expire, and that I should renew as
soon as possible, operators are standing by, and if I order now, I get a
bamboo steamer.  (I made up that last bit.)

	However, I remember someone at the DevCon mentioning that, if you
were a registered developer, your status was renewed by having attended the
conference.

	So what's the story?  Did I mis-remember something?

Yup.

Attendance at the 1988 devcon has no effect on developer renewal.
Anyone presently a member of one of the developer programs may automatically
renew their status in that program. Or, in the case of commercial developers,
may automatically renew their membership in either program. 

One of the differences between renewal and joining one of the programs for the
first time is present members who are are renewing their membership
are not subject to scrutiny regarding their meeting the requirements for
membership in their present program. 

Ordinarily, the CATS staff reviews all new applications for the developer
support programs to determine if the applicant meets the criteria for the
program (e.g. already has commercial programs released, is connected with a
university or college, etc.)


BTW, Leo - have you sent us your new address? AmigaMail is sent bulkmail -

Yes it was. Best laugh today, and it makes up for a lack of display
hacks since you got a real job.

Speaking of real jobs, when does this mythical "Onion" project hit the
streets?
