Internet Commerce Engine 5 is not a open source platform, but we realize that our staff could never create all of the possible program modules needed to create a very robust system. So we are seeking developers or partners to help us create the modules that customers have been asking for over the last 5 years. So in a sense, the program is sort of open source, but the program code will be compiled as binary files and controlled for quality purposes.
Our goal from this day forward is to accelerate the development and expansion of the program to keep pace with SAS (Software as a Service). Since Internet Commerce Engine 5 relies on compiled binaries, or server controls, it takes 5 times longer to write rock solid program modules.
The base package of Internet Commerce Engine 5 is module ready, in which your program module can be installed using windows installer. The customer simply clicks on the windows program and your module files will create the needed folders, and insert the needed DLL and module registration files.
When your module is ready, we will help you market and sell your module to the world. In exchange, we will take 15% of the module price to pay the cost of hosting the store.
We already have the names and addresses of customers waiting for these program modules. So beta testing the modules is not a problem. Some modules are worth more than others, but these modules can sell in a range from $995 to 20K USD
The requirements for writing a module are as follows. You can write the module in VB or CSharp. It doesn't matter to us. The module must be a ASP.net web server control that is compiled as a DLL File. All of the loose artwork, JavaScript, tag editors for the module must be embedded as well. You must have a set of buttons themed for black or white pages, and a silver button theme as well in .PNG format.
Programmers that register and prove their skill level will get a free copy of Internet Commerce Engine 5 for use in development. They will receive a copy of the Products Module Source Code, and a White Paper that illustrates the Shopping Cart structure. You will be able to sell copies of Internet Commerce Engine 5 direct to your customer, as long as you purchase a key code for the base program code, in which you will receive a significant discount.
We will update this page in January 2011. After we start up out blog module, and provide links to source code, white papers and API's to code to.
