Jesus Christ - when will the insanity end.

I know we have some Apple folk on here - who know my appreciation for  
the platform and the work I've been doing recently to promote it.

There are things we weather - like the private video APIs ( which are  
causing me pain right now for a company I'm starting at the moment -  
and about to raise several hundred thousand in seed funding for ). We  
weather them because I have faith that Apple is working on preparing  
the APIs for release very soon.

But there are things going on which are frankly wrong and what's  
worse, the people I have met within Apple, both at and outside of  
WWDC, have all articulated how wrong things are.

Apple is better than this. This is making the platform a laughing  
stock. It's taken months and 800+ apps for Apple to get rid of one  
developer who's been wrapping web pages, 5 at a time, in a WebView and  
getting his dross onto the store while at the same time sealing with  
multiple rejections of my own apps due to perceived content.  
Murderdrome, much tamer than a lot of other content, (including that  
in the NBC Heroes app which we developed) remains rejected - the  
writing and art cost me hundreds already never mind the development  
time. Again, I can weather that - we have other projects.

But I'm getting tired of the lunacy. And I can't take the risk that  
this new project will get rejected ( even though it will, by default,  
have a 17+ rating ).
