anyway, if artiste allow there work to be included in apple store, they agree
to distribute it under a double licence : gpl and apple.
i'm not a legal expert, and not sure apple allow a double licensing.

I wasn't aware that Apple are doing this.
This is interesting and important to me.
Frank and I are two of the principle authors
of rjlib (in fact there are many others including
Chris McCormick and many Pd artists who
have allowed their work to be incorporated into
the collection, all as GPL)
Every patch carries a prominent GPL notice.

As Cyrille wrote, it's mostly a political issue: AppStore
apps are
tied to the device and officially only available through
the AppStore.
This is some kind of DRM and many people don't consider it
compatible
with the GPL, at least not with the latest version.
More specifically, the FSF considers the GPL incompatible with the
ToS for the Itunes and App store:
http://www.fsf.org/news/blogs/licensing/more-about-the-app-store-gpl-enforcement
To play it safe, the Pd in RjDj only contains the BSD parts
of Pd, no
[expr] etc. Some GPL stuff is included, like the rj
library, but that's
all written by Reality Jockey.
What does authorship have to do with whether the Appstore ToS conflicts
with the GPL?
