Greetings Roku Developer,
First off, this year has been a great one for the Roku Developer Program. When we launched the Channel Store a little over a year ago, we had but 13 channels. Today we have well over 100. This is due in no small part thanks to developers such as you. Thank you.
Secondly, this year is rapidly coming to a close and we wanted to let you know that if you want to publish your channel in 2010, you will need to press submit no later than next Monday, December 13th. We will be taking a break from publishing new channels over the Christmas and New Year’s break and will resume in the first week of January.
New Grid UI Features added in the 2.8 SDK
If you’ve been waiting for the ability to choose from different aspect ratio artwork and further customize the Grid UI experience, the 2.8 version of the SDK adds these features. Check it out at: http://owner.roku.com/developer/home.
Happy Holidays and we wish you a great 2011,
The Roku Developer Program Team
