They use at least bash, wget and gcc. Lets tell GNU so they can sue them! :)
Apple complies publishing the modified source code of these applications
indenpendently, but not xcode wich is propietary.
Also apple is sponsoring BSD licensed replacements for all GPL applications
used and in use
Hello everyone.
what about putting blender on the App Store (the one for Mac applications of
course, not for iOS)?
Blender could reach a lot more popularity.

Hi,
Personally, I don't think it's a good idea. App Store isn't compatible

must all respect the terms of the GPL, and encourage Apple
I might be wrong, but as I understood it the problem is that the GPL requires
the distributor to
also provide the source of the application. In the case of the App Store Apple
is the distributor.
But they have never thought that anyone would like to distribute source code
through their system
If that is the problem then the solution would be to provide a link to
the source, problem solved. There is no reason apple will object to
that and there is a link to the developer anyway. Btw, It's debatable
whether or not apple has actually any part here, in the sense meant in
the GPL. The
I don't understand the purpose of Mac App Store. You can simply download
.zip from the web and drag it on desktop. What can be simpler? On the other
hand you need to get in iOS App Store to be on iPhone. There absolutely no
reason why we must or want to be in Mac App Store. Mac App Store probably

You could basically say the same about your favourite Linuxs package manager.

I've got another idea (then I stop spamming here):
Would it comply to App Store rules if one would write a native OS X application
(conforming to HIG
and BSD licensed) that is a Blender Downloader or Blender Installer
