Hi, Chipp. I'm (unsurprisingly!) using the plugin. I don't mean that
as a joke - I actually started writing it to save me time on my own iOS
projects.
Other coders had a similar interest / need (feedback after a demo on
LiveCode.TV) so it has now developed into it's current form.
It works on both Mac and PC - I've got my eye on an Android tablet, and
plan to try some android development as well.
The scripts are protected - if I can generate some revenue from the
plugin, then I can dedicate time to developing it further.
I don't have any problems using protected scripts in projects, but I can
see your point of view.
Then again, if I decided that using LiveCode was too hard to support
because I didn't have the source code, and started writing my own cross
platform development engine, things would take quite a bit longer ;)
The community is small at the moment, but I'm excited about how LiveCode
is progressing and the things that are in the pipeline. I'm hoping that
the small community is replaced by a huge community.
There is a tab control on the way - I'm trying to build a full feature
set. The plugin is still in it's early days, and by no means perfect.
I've still got a couple of support tickets to sort out just for buttons
- the feedback and bug reports have been excellent - really helping to
shape things to come.
Great presentation last night, BTW - I enjoyed it. There are a couple
of techniques that I've discovered during the development of MobGUI that
I've thought "hey, that could be a good topic for LiveCode.TV", so
although it's not open source so far, there's nothing stopping me
sharing ideas and interesting bits and pieces with others!
HTH,
JC.

If you are, do you mind a few questions?
1. Does the exact same MobGUI plugin work on both Mac and PC? IOW, if you
have your plugins synchronized in Dropbox, will you be able to use it?
2. Are the scripts protected? Can you dive in and see what's going on
below the surface? This would be great as a learning aid. I pretty much have
a rule NOT to use protected scripts in commercial products as it's difficult
to support, not to mention to debug things when they start to go wrong.
Besides, this community is just too small to worry about other developers
ripping you off and trying to sell to others here, so why the need to
protect?
3. I didn't see a tab control- is there one on the way?
4. What are the other iOS libraries out there?
5. What is currently the best version of OSX iOS which to work with?
6. Anyone know how to pinch zoom a picture? Is there already a control or
library for that?
That's it for now! Thanks for any help.
