Microsoft extends mobile Exchange licensing scheme
Published: 19 Dec 2008 11:26 GMT
Microsoft announced on Thursday that it has expanded its Exchange ActiveSync IP licensing programme and posted technical documents to spur development of prototype applications that link to its Exchange Server and Exchange ActiveSync-enabled mobile phones.
The Exchange ActiveSync software is designed to allow mobile phones to receive wireless push email, as well as synchronise calendars, contacts and tasks. It also aims to allow companies to manage wireless devices and enact security policies.
The software giant also posted the protocols on the Microsoft Developer Network and expanded the licensing programme to establish greater clarity on the steps and licensing terms that are needed when other companies want to commercialise the ActiveSync applications.
