Microsoft Dev Blog? - Windows RT General

Does anyone know of a forum or blog maintained by the RT Dev team? I am not sure if this exists but would be cool to be able to talk directly with the dev team and see things that they are working on for Windows RT.
Maybe bug them enough to allow 3rd party browsers!
Thanks

Please contribute. Android 2.0+ will not be released for General Mobile DSTL1.

Friends,
Rumour has it that Android 2.0+ will not be released for General Mobile DSTL1. If you are an owner of a DSTL1 or Sciphone N21, this means your device will not benefit from the upcoming version of Android.
However there are many people who work individually for incredible ROMs to make these devices better, like AmonRa, Andferno, Crzyruski etc. These people will need the source codes for the new ROMs so that they can continue developing.
Please take a minute and help them by posting your wish at the General Mobile dot com's contact page.
Remember; Android is a very extendable OS and can be made better by continued efforts.
Thanks and peace.

[REQUEST] Google Tasks Collaboration

I'm looking for someone to collaborate with me on a nice Google Tasks app. Yes, there are some apps in the marketplace already, but none that I consider beautiful enough for the Windows Phone platform.
I'm a designer, so I'm looking for someone to actually write the code to make it work. This isn't exactly a for-pay job, more of a community service project. I could probably manage a small fee (less than $30), or the developer could submit it to the marketplace as a paid app and take in all proceeds.
I'm still in the planning stages, but I'll post some designs as soon as I can (probably tonight). It's going to be an ad-free app, with a nice, simple name (something like "Tasks" or "Google Tasks") nothing like "SuperDooper Tasks Pro, Now With More Dooper."
If you're interested, let me know by posting below.

This is a development section. I suggest posting in the WP7 software development section!​

[Indiegogo campaign] Phonegap cross-platform In-App-Purchase plugin

JC Hoelt, the lead developer of the iOS InAppPurchase plugin is collecting money on Indiegogo to turn his plugin in a a multi-platform (Android and iOS) In-App-Purchase solution, the idea would be to provide as much abstraction of the platform as possible, yet giving access to platform specific APIs.
Here's the link to the IndieGoGo campain: igg.me /at/cordova-iap/x/8416559
And here it is the discussion on Github from which the idea came from:
github.com /j3k0/PhoneGap-InAppPurchase-iOS/issues/32#issuecomment-51896638
Hopefully we'll find enough contributors to make this happen!
Thank you,
Federico Meini
P.S.
I'm sorry we're all newbies on XDA so we can't post links, can some mod help us? Thank you very much

[INDEX]Betaapps - beta testing community (google+)

Dear XDA members and developers, in case all of your apps need to be tested, and tested correctly, I would like to introduce my google+ beta community here:
Betaapps
As many of you know, Google implemented beta testing options to the Google Play Market and this option based on google+ communities, where you can invite your testers.
These way have a huge advantage:
1) Users can install your beta application directly from Play Market (they can trust your app more, and they don't need to move *.apk files on the device).
2) You will have a simple bugtracker with crash reports, it should increase quality of received feedbacks.
My community should help developers to share their beta programs and invite testers to their communities. If you have a post on XDA forums with your application beta promo, you also can just share the link to our community to the "Request feedback" section with no worry that it will be removed (even if you don't have any community). There are not so much places where you can find a list of beta testing programs, like in our "apps" section, and I also would like to invite all XDA members who want to be notified about new android apps in beta to join our Betaapps community as a tester.
For now, Betaapps community is growing and it will be very helpful if you will share this community with your google+ circles and other social networks. This forum section could be more effective for developers if they will know how to get more testers.
Actually I have a big plans in beta testing field and my community and I hope that XDA members will enjoy my activities and our work will be help testers and developers meet each other. Welcome for your comments.
* for moderators: It would be great to pin this post in this forum section. I also
can place a link to this post in our community description to help people visit XDA. Thanks!

Welcome - Betaapps community is a part of crowd testing. It's mean that everyone can become a tester and of course you can be invited privately for more interesting projects, if your testing skills are good.
There are a lot of free testing programs there and you can join any of them, by the way I will share some information about other beta platforms where you can find paid projects in "crowd" section. Stay tuned and you will become a part of a big crowd testing project with paid opportunities and other awesome features.
You can also introduce yourselves there, and share that community with your friends. We are looking for active QA professionals there :highfive:
Fill free to ask anything you want to know about Betaapps!
