If you are a Linux developer and have completed a viable Linux application, GraphOn Corporation (www.graphon.com) may have a showcase opportunity for you (no costs, no strings, no hitches -- just GraphOn's great enthusiasm and support for the Linux community)! We invite you to send us your answers below for: 1) a chance to showcase your application during a special evening event March 2 in San Jose,California 2) a chance to showcase your applications in an online showcase of Linux apps (details below). In a couple of weeks, GraphOn will host a party to launch "The Playpen," an online showcase of selected Linux applications accessible by people who don't even have Linux on their desktops. (Watch www.graphon.com for The Playpen URL or better yet, come to the party!) GraphOn will launch The Playpen with a great party 7:30pm the evening of Tuesday, March 2 during LinuxWorld Expo and Conference at the Hyatt St. Claire across the street from the San Jose Convention Center. The GraphOn Playpen launch party is co-sponsored by Corel, Hardware Computing Canada (they're giving away a free NetWinder at the party), Oracle and Red Hat and your app may be chosen as a guest demo for the evening. (You'll be notified by February 26 if you are selected). If you're going to Linux Expo, come by our party, enjoy the music, food and meet the sponsors. GraphOn's online Linux showcase in The Playpen lets people with Windows, multi-user NT or just a browser use GraphOn's GO-Global, GO-Between or GO-Joe to play with the Linux applications. GraphOn's software can be downloaded for a free trial period to see just how cool Linux apps are, as follows: GO-Joe (no download necessary) GO-Global (download of 300k native Windows client) GO-Between- (download of 300k client that runs on multi-user NT) So here are the questions: · What do you call your application(s)? · What do your applications do? · Is your application finished and tested? · Would you be interested in submitting your application to be considered for The PlaypenLaunch Party March 2? · If your application is selected, would you be available to demonstrate your application at the party that evening? · Would you be interested in submitting your Linux applications for consideration for online access in The Playpen? Thanks! Please send your response by Friday, February 24 to linuxdev@patmeier.com. DO NOT send the application itself (yet). We'll get back to you and let you know where to send the actual application. (GraphOn does not guarantee that every application will be selected for the launch event or the showcase). We DO look forward to hearing from you soon!
