The article includes a quote suggesting that there are no successful platforms that NDA bans public developer discussion.
This is only true if you ignore the entire gaming industry, where I can think of not a single successful platform that allows public discussion.
I hope that Apple eventually realizes that a healthy developer community is actually in their best interest.
- j2d2 18y agoCan you elaborate on why you think Apple does not have a healthy developer community?
- unalone 18y agoI think he misspoke. I think it's a healthy developer community with unhealthy restrictions. That's what he hopes Apple will realize they don't want. Although I don't think anybody should think for a moment that Apple would keep this restriction if it ever seemed it might cost them something.
- silencio 18y agoThe problem is that beyond events like WWDC, apple really has no place to discuss anything NDA'd - not just the iPhone SDK, but things like developer seeds as well. I'm betting the iPhone SDK NDA will be lifted someday, just right now it makes zero sense.
