Hi Dennis,
re SDK: expectations are high re the abilities for solution partners to create add-ons using BYD Studio. Probably too high. An early version MIGHT only provide rudimentary access.
This year's SAP TechEd will show how far down the "partner layer" will go that can be accessed. There's also the issue of pricing and go-to-market of partner add-ons: How will they deploy them? IF there is going to be a "BYD add-on store" would SAP take a cut? We've heard nothing about this yet.
As you've also pointed out, the developer ramp-up needs some serious community involvement. Most likely over the next 2-3 years. But then, if a big gun such as SAP can't pull it off, who can?
Regards,
Michael Koch
