Well, this could defintely open up the XBOX 360 indie development for XBLA. For example, people could port open source games to Windows & submit them to MS to try to get them on XBOX 360.
I really believe that MS should also allow indie development on the 360 because the indie game developers are where it is at because they don't have the money that big game companies have so indies have to make a game which is fun to play.
Yeah, just like Sony does with PS3 & Linux.
Maybe if MS would make a own private key for indie devs, and make the XEXs different from retail game XEXs so a "backup" can't be patched and resigned with the indie key.
