Mango - for all developers!



    A little more than two months ago on MIX11 we told the world of mobile developers about Windows Phone codename “Mango”. About a month ago, everyone received new improved development tools for Windows Phone, including a phone emulator with Mango. At the same time, we showed the whole world almost all the features of the new OS that will be available to customers. Our collaboration with Nokia is gaining momentum. Despite the inherent skepticism of the developers, the partners from the Finnish company do not cease to pleasantly surprise us.

    Since its inception, the ecosystem of developers for Windows Phone 7 has created more than 20,000 applications.

    Today we are taking the next big step. Windows Phone Developer Tools Beta 2

    becomes available to each developer registered on the App Hub.

    But that's not all. We're starting distributing the Windows Phone codename “Mango” update for developers! Yes, yes, this update is for your phones.

    The most active developers will begin to receive letters of invitation to upgrade today. In the next two to three weeks, the upgrade infrastructure is planned to be fully operational for all registered developers.

    You can read more about all of this on the Windows Phone 7 development team blog .
