A Joint Participation Proposal from the Developers of wysiwyg

In order to support the growing needs of all lighting, multimedia, motion and spatial audio control/console manufacturers, who would like to take advantage of wysiwyg and its extended tool set, CAST has instigated an on-going Developer Program. This program allows us to give you a coordinated package of documentation, platforms, and email/phone support towards helping the integration of your products with ours. By doing this, it also helps enhance marketability in both yours and our products.

This program has been specifically designed not to expose any of your confidential information, (i.e., source code or IP). Cast gives you all you need to make this happen without you having to disclose this information.

Benefits:

		Use of a 3-user network wysiwyg Perform/Learn 500 system that comes with free upgrades/features as long as you are involved in the Developer Program (for R&D and promotional purposes only).
		Copies of specifications and sample code pertaining to wysiwyg (e.g. DataFlow specification, AutoFocus and all of its relevant features, etc.).
		Access to in house wysiwyg test utilities.
		Access to beta and pre-release Cast software including special beta dongles.
		Email and telephone support directly from Cast.
		Participation in joint marketing campaigns (Print, Web and CD-based).
		Use of "wysiwyg" and "wysiwyg-Enabled" logos to indicate compatibility with us and the extended wysiwyg feature sets with your products, plus guidelines for this use.
		By joining or being a member or a RWD we will also give you instant access to BlackBox and BlackTrax in the future.

Requirements:

		Developers must be lighting control and or console manufacturers, and currently have devices available in the marketplace, or be working on products for release to the marketplace.
		Signing of the " wysiwyg Registered Developer's License Agreement".
		Fees. US $1,000 per year (subject to the Developer's Licence Agreement).
		Allow Cast the use and or access to one of the Developer's desks or offline editors for testing and certification and when needed for testing and quality assurance.
		wysiwyg and or the wysiwyg Enabled logo must be shown publicly with the control/console equipment at trade-shows and in all advertising to do with any products that the Developer makes wysiwyg compatible (Unless otherwise agreed to by both parties).
		Approval of the wysiwyg features working in the Developer's products byCast to ensure quality control before the product can be advertised as "wysiwyg-Enabled".

The primary intention of this program is to create a dialog between Cast and you the control/console manufacturer, and the goal is to develop a more useful electronic connection between wysiwyg and hardware or software devices.

If you are interested in participating in this program, please contact me at gdensham@castgroupinc.com for a copy of our Developer's Agreement for your review.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.
