October 18, 2006 New Wiki for Developer World	[Back]

To provide technical information that is as up-to-date as possible using experience from the commercial world of mobile application, game and content development, Sony Ericsson Developer World now supports a Wiki community. Categorized into three sections covering Java ME, Symbian OS/UIQ 3 and Media, all Wiki articles are freely available to all visitors to the Sony Ericsson Developer World web portal and editable by discussion forum members who have attained the Junior level or above.

"The new Wiki is a great opportunity for developers to actively contribute to the Sony Ericsson Developer World community," says Mikael Nerde, Head of Developer Program & Content Planning at Sony Ericsson.

"This Wiki continues our commitment to freely available technical information by adding a new and exciting dimension to our existing discussion forums, Knowledge Base and downloadable Docs & Tools."
