I;ve talked about earlier that I;ve heard from many contacts of mine that Microsoft will maintain one more Professional Developers Conference (PDC) this 12 months,
Office 2010 Discount, most likely in September.Now there;s new evidence — courtesy of the Microsoft India Web site — that this yr;s PDC will be in Seattle again, as last 12 months;s was. A contest for the best new Windows Azure applications will reward the top six creators all-expenses-paid trips to the PDC 2011 in Seattle,
Office 2007 Ultimate Key, according to the Web site.
Microsoft has but to announce officially if and when it plans to hold PDC this year. I;d guess the lack of information is related to Windows 8, something else the Softies still have said nothing about officially. I;ve noted that there;s been speculation that Microsoft is planning to deliver a first test build of Windows 8 at this yr;s PDC.The PDC is held regularly, though not annually. The target audience is professional developers and software architects who build for Microsoft;s different platforms, including Windows, Windows Azure and Windows Phone. In the past few years, Microsoft has held PDCs in 2003 (Los Angeles), 2005 (Los Angeles),
Office 2010 Home And Stude/nt, 2008 (Los Angeles),
Windows 7 Home Premium, 2009 (Los Angeles) and 2010 (Seattle). The planned 2007 PDC was cancelled.Back to the Azure developers contest with the PDC 2011 prize. It;s open to amateur and expert developers. Registrations must be completed by April 15,
Office 2007 Keygen, and entries must be received by April 30. Winners are slated to be announced by July 31, 2011.I;ve asked Microsoft officials again for dates and the location of this 12 months;s expected PDC. No word back so far. If/when I hear back, I;ll update this post.Update: “Sorry, not commenting,” a Microsoft spokesperson responded to my inquiry via e-mail.
