[sword-devel] iPhone developers?

[David Trotz]

Ian
That's new to me. I knew Apple was pretty restrictive to the release of
apps, didn't realize it would have an impact on developing and testing of
software. How will this affect the devs, I am assuming we also need one of
those 100 slots? Anyhow I am very interested in helping out. I have done a
significant amount of work on SwordReader for the Windows Mobile platform
over the past year and a half and have just grown so tired of windows on my
phone that I decided to jump ship and go with an iPhone. 
Hopefully someone else will take on the SwordReader development, but from my
experiences I am guessing that the Windows Mobile platform is a dying breed.

In Christ,
David Trotz

No, this will be a free application. The reason that I require sign- 
ups is that it is impossible to release a version that will run on  
just any iPhone/iPod touch because of Apple's code signing  
requirements. Each device's UUID must be added to the provisioning  
profile or the device will reject the app. The App Store of course  
uses a different system, but that is handled by Apple, and I don't  
want to release beta software to the App Store.
