Hello everyone.
The Mixed Reality Forums here are no longer being used or maintained.
There are a few other places we would like to direct you to for support, both from Microsoft and from the community.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality.
If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers, or in our Microsoft Tech Communities forums at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/mixed-reality/ct-p/MicrosoftMixedReality.
And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.

Hi, @RetinasVR
I'm not part of the program but here is what I know so far. Since this information is all fragments from multiple chats it is by no mean final, may be partially incorrect and more than welcomes updates. Think of what I'm gonna say as a rumor.
The program is not official. There is no open application form or procedure. To become part of the program you need to be noticed by Microsoft in some way. You also may need to have a previous track record of developing either Mixed Reality or any other related medium applications or games. The team has to be of a certain size, around 10 people, and look more like a Unity games development team with artists etc. than a team of code-only .NET software engineers. Readiness Program is outstanding studios about whom Microsoft is sure they're going to deliver content on par with the expectations. As far as I understand, there are plenty requests to Microsoft to create Mixed reality applications which they, as platform developers, don't do. They are, however, happy to re-direct these requests to the "ready" partner studios.
Recently the program extended to Europe with it's decision making located somewhere in London.
Additionally, an official program with defined guidelines is being worked on at the moment but it is not out yet.
As I said, I'm happy if somebody gives a better / more correct info.
