We're happy to announce the Xbox.com Community Developer Program! This is your opportunity to stay up to date on the latest changes to the Xbox LIVE® gamer card data feed. Program members gain access to a private forum group where additional nodes and updates to the gamer card XML feed will be discussed.

Developers will also receive a special Xbox.com Forums icon to identify them as members of the program.

If you are a community Web developer or someone looking to build the next cool gadget or widget to show off gamer card data, then send in your application for access to the program.

We have met our milestone of 50 developers and will be holding at this number pending future program feature development.

If you have applied to the program and have not received a response, please note that we have processed all applicants and will consider your admittance at a future date.

Please feel free to submit your application for future consideration even though we are not actively processing new applications at this time.

We thank everyone for their keen interest in this program, and look for an announcement about the expansion of this program in the months to come.
