German phone developer, snom technology AG, is running a contest, VoIP
programmer community to develop new XML-Minibrowser applications for
the company's 3xx series of phones.
Dubbed "eXtreMeLy snomlified!" the competition runs through to October
22 and the winners will receive phones, cameras and other goodies like
an invitation to either Fall VON Boston 2007 or SIMO Madrid 2007.
The snom 3xx series, consisting the snom 300, 320, 360 and 370,
have a permanent XML-Minibrowser and the company is hoping to come up
with working data screens that will work ideally on at least several
of the models.
"This contest is an exciting approach to bridging the gap between the
enterprise and grassroots programmers," said Michael Knieling, CFO and
executive vice president of marketing and sales for snom. "We look
forward to witnessing the innovative and cutting-edge applications the
VoIP community has to offer our legacy IP phone se-ries."
Contestants
may submit in two categories: Business Application and Lifestyle
Appli-cation. Several factors will be considered when choosing the
winners, including the number of snom phone models for which the
application was programmed, the size of the application and various
technical requirements. A prerequisite to participate is that the entry
is published under the BSD licenses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licenses).
A
winner will be announced for each category prior to both the VON Fall
Boston and SIMO Madrid exhibitions and invited to attend the respective
events, where a demonstration of the winning applications will take
place at an awards ceremony.
