Red Faced....

So, over the last few weeks I've been very frustrated with what support Microsoft has been giving BXB. While now one of my biggest frustrations with the XDK has resolved itself a little, I still felt there are some outstanding problems.

I've spoken about the XCN before, so I won't go on about that. More recently I've been focusing on working the Red to improve first party support for BXB. Things have gone pretty well, I feel like I've opened more of a dialogue with the PR company, who a few other people in the industry have said can be rather difficult to get on with.

Things feel a little better at the moment and I'm working on a few possibilities with Red around getting more interesting content from them.

Red also kindly put me in touch with someone in Microsoft who can help me with my more ambitious plans like getting the chance to upload BXB themed content onto the marketplace. These are big plans in the very early stages of development and they could easily go tits up at any point.

More important at the moment is to focus on E3 and launching the new features on BXB.
