Palm has announced that it will phase out its PluggedIn developer program in favor of the Palm Developer Network (www.palm.com/us/developers), a new program for hardware and software developers that includes elements for Palm OS as well as for Windows Mobile. Services available immediately are a device loaner program and the “Designed for Palm” software compatibility testing and certification program. Being launched later this year will be a multiplatform support knowledgebase and Palm Solutions Directory, a promotional program for qualified applications . . . Early September saw the formation of the dotMobi Advisory Group (MAG), a not-for-profit consortium with the purpose of ensuring that the .mobi Top Level Domain is operated in the interests of mobile developers and content providers. On Sept. 26, .mobi, the first TLD dedicated to content for mobile devices, began accepting general domain-name registrations. Members include Ericsson, Microsoft, Nokia, Samsung, T-Mobile and Vodafone . . . The Itanium Solutions Alliance celebrated its first anniversary last month by observing two milestones. The alliance announced that demand chain software supplier JDA Software Group had joined, pushing membership over the century mark. At the same time, the alliance noted that more than 2,000 vendors had released 10,700 applications for the Itanium 2 platform, more than twice the number available at the alliance’s founding last year . . . The Liberty Alliance has released the final version of ID-WSF 2.0, Liberty’s open Identity Web Services Framework. Among the key areas addressed in this release is the ability to deal with identity transactions at all levels. A new Liberty People Service was designed to provide more privacy and security for social networking applications. Also, for the first time, the alliance is releasing the requirements and use cases that supported the development of ID-WSF 2.0.

NEW PRODUCTS
ComponentArt has announced the immediate availability of Web.UI 2006.2 for ASP.NET AJAX beta, which it says is the first suite of controls designed specifically for Microsoft’s forthcoming rich Internet application development framework that was formerly known as Atlas. The tool offers deep integration into the ASP.NET AJAX framework: All controls inherit from the Sys.UI.Control client-side base class, implement type descriptors and expose extensive client-side object models built specifically for the AJAX Library type system. It also can use Atlas client-side syntax to modify or even create the structure of any UI control on the client, without callbacks or postbacks.
