I just spoke to Charles Cherry about becoming a Developer and was told
that Atari is changing the Developer program. Currently, there is only one
level, that of Commerical Developer, which costs $250. This is down from
$300 in 1989. this includes the Atari Docs and the Alycon C compiler. The
old package, which cost $50 more , included the Mark Williams Corp C compiler.
The MWC compiler was dropped since most developers already owned a compiler,
and didn't need it. Charles told me that the MWC compiler can still be purchased
thru Atari (as a developer) for $100. sounds fair to me.
Charles did say that Atari is trying to make a Non_Commerical Developer class,
but that it is not announced yet.
So, there is NO "documentation only" developer package, but the Full Commerical
Dev Package has benn dropped to $250.00.
As always contact Gail Johnson at Atari Corp for more info.
