REAL Software’s Cubie awards
(http://www.realbasic.com/developer/programs/cubies/)
We want to recognize the contributions our users have made to the industry
by promoting the excellence of what they have produced with REALbasic.
We accepted nominations from anyone, but no REAL Software employee or
member of their family is eligible. The only other requirement is that the
products be Premier partners in the Made with REALbasic program. Winners
will receive TWO free upgrades to REALbasic, our support in publishing the
product (if desired), free publicity, the admiration and envy of their
peers, and other prizes to be announced.
The entries will be judged on quality, fitness to the task (fun game?
useful utility?), polish, verve, and brio.
Each winner in the categories (past categories have included: Advocate of
the Year, Cross-Platform, Developer Tool, Game, Internet, Mac OS X,
Utility, Overall, and Business) will receive prizes. The categories change
based on the entries received.
The Swag:
TWO free upgrades to REALbasic, Professional edition!
