Problem Getting Advanced SDK

[_Michael_D_McGuire_]

I got the basic SDK about 9/21/06, and an email from Tom Hogarty with a license contract for the advanced SDK to sign and fax in. I had to run the contract by my legal people, and they were not real fast. It wasn't until 11/29/06 that I faxed it in, and emailed Hogarty that I had faxed it. His original email said it could take up to 3 weeks to get approval after it was sent in. More than that time has passed so it seems to have fallen between the cracks. I would like to get it now or at least know if the request has been refused.

I have the same problem - I faxed my application on 10 of November and haven't got any feedback at all since that date. They don't seem to be very helpful:(

What is the advanced sdk? How do I tell which one I have?

[_Michael_D_McGuire_]

It's the sdk for import and file format plugins.

Yes, me too. I faxed in the paperwork on 10/11/06 and haven't heard anything since, despite some followup email queries.

Is there anyone out there who HAS received the Advanced SDK in the last few months?

Haha, you've only been waiting 3 months? I handed my agreement to a product manager in person in JUNE and have not had any result.

1. Such a delay is tough to explain to a client.
2. I end up wondering if I want the damn thing at all.
3. Way to strengthen your platform, Adobe!

For the desperate, if you want Advanced for Mach-O porting of Format plugins, it appears you can copy the PIFormat.h from an earlier SDK and at least get a build. I haven't yet tested the result however.
