Fasmicro Will Enter Android Developer Challenge – Ovim AppStore Under Lite Edition

Fasmicro ( the parent company of Tekedia) will be participating in the Google Developer Challenge for sub-Sahara Africa. Accordingly, there will be minor delays in the opening of all Apps in Ovim AppStore. Because of the terms of the competition which eliminates any publicly available apps, we will not be releasing most of the Apps; so we will run only some Apps while the key ones will be used for the competition. We ask our customers and fans to understand.

 

Ovim App Store is hosted in apps.fasmicro.net.

 

Competition Overview

Welcome to the Android Developer Challenge, Sub Saharan Africa! You can participate by developing a killer application built on Android. The sections below provide information about the types of applications you can enter, as well as the contest information and dates.

Developers submit their apps to one of three specially-designated ADC categories beginning June 1st at 12 AM GMT. An application may only be submitted to a single category.

To determine the winner, there is a two round submission process. All apps that want to be considered for the competition, must be submit by July 1st, 2011. There are three competition regions — West & Central Africa, East Africa and Southern Africa.
