Close the gap: simple
Please allow any developer to engage with the MNO platform without signing complicated agreements.
Document the platform and its APIs without signup; provide test/sandbox servers and ways to test an app without signing an agreement; write example libraries and put them on github.
Developers make the platform vibrant, and developers are not interested in engaging in a "partnership" model;
Allow anyone to work with your APIs and then they will do so.
