First a recap: The last official SDK most developers saw from Google was back in March, and then Google slipped up and everyone learned that only a certain few developers were privy to the latest SDK updates.

Linux Foundation Paving Way for New Kernel Developers

Jack Spine writes "The Linux Foundation has published a how-to document for developers who want to negotiate the hidden shoals of open source. According to both the Linux Foundation and the Open Source Consortium, developers can get frustrated with the processes in open source coding, especially for enterprise-class projects like Linux. 'A guide to the kernel development process' aims to encourage participation from new programmers by explaining what's involved. Some developers and businesses attempting to submit changes to the Linux kernel find themselves tangled up with the processes used, according to the guide, which was written by Jonathan Corbet, executive editor of lwn.net and himself a Linux developer."

Motorola To Hire 300 Android Developers

ruphus13 writes "Google's Android is starting to see more industry support. Motorola recently announced plans, despite hardships within the company, to hire 300 Android developers. Quoting: 'A quick search of Motorola's job openings suggests that, indeed, Android is set to become a permanent fixture at Motorola, which has long built Linux-based phones but hitherto used MontaVista's Mobilinux. The goal? Move from an internal development pool of 50 Android-savvy developers to 350. Motorola, recognizing that most developers won't have deep experience with Google Android, is looking for a somewhat general skillset ... Java and Google Android programming experience is listed as "highly desirable," but not required.'" T-Mobile has already made plans to use Android as well.

Apple NDA too probitive for iPhone developers?

The iPhone development community has seen large growth since the introduction of the SDK. The App Store has seen many great third party applications released but developers are now starting to run into problems while trying to to innovate new functions. All developers who download the iPhone SDK are required to agree to a NDA that does not allow developers to discuss code on forums or through email. This means that if a developer is unsure of how to code a certain function then they have no where to look for assistance.

Developers working around iPhone SDK restrictions

Developers are finding ways to cope with the harsh restrictions of Apple's iPhone SDK, writes the LA Times. The terms of the SDK include a strict non-disclosure agreement, which has generally been interpreted to mean that developers cannot discuss the SDK tools with people outside of an app's creative team, whether through e-mail, blogs, discussion boards or conferences. "We can't talk about our problems," says Jeffrey Long, a developer working on a satellite radio app. "At the same time, we can't talk about the problems we've fixed."

Developers getting daily app sales data via iTunes Connect

Sales are going up, up, up! Apple, for a very short time, used to include the number of times an iPhone app had been downloaded right there on the App Store for everyone to see, but the count was quickly removed. The only way developers could check on sales after that was to wait for the monthly sales report from Apple, the first of which won't be available until August. Thanks to tips from our readers and a poster on Apple's support forums, however, developers can now log in to iTunes Connect to view daily and weekly sales data.

While details are sparse, a Cyan employee with the moniker of Chogon reveals that the so-called iMyst is an outside project, independent of Cyan. Chogon notes that while some may roll their eyes, the project is responsible for keeping several developers employed, while also allowing Cyan to expand its reach to other platforms.

Apple's App Store Actions Offend iPhone Developers

iPhone developers are upset by Apple, Inc.'s unfriendly rejection letter and Apple's rejections of third-party submissions to its App Store. Even Apple's letter is subject to nondisclosure.
