I used to work for companies that were Microsoft Partners. One of Microsoft's rules was that they required Partners to employ one (or more) developers that have some Microsoft certification. As an MSCD, I met those requirements (for silver and gold levels). That cert is no longer offered, so I wonder if some exception/rule got removed and now all the partners without "certified" developers got kicked to the curb?
