OK
I just can't believe what I'm reading....
Apple's terms effectively disallows GPL software and they are actively
excluding GPL from their store.
But if Apertium never, ever, can be a part of ane app for iPhone
distributed thru the only distribution channed that Apple allows, then I
can't think of any reason at all for using any time at all on this platform
for GSoC.
Can someone please make me change my mind and tell I'm dreaming.
