Why would Apple want to "fix" Radar? It seems to meet _their_ requirements quite well:
- Developers have a place that they can report things which is industry best practice
- They don't need to put in as much money to staffing it
If it's a big enough issue then they'll hear about it through other channels.

- taligent 14y agoI used to develop at Apple. Radar is a piece of junk.
- fredley 14y agoThis is exactly why action on the part of developers is a good idea. Obviously Apple doesn't need to fix it, the current system is serving them well enough. Apple's target market are its users not its developers, and that's fine. However, as a developer, I'm going to be trying my hardest to pressure Apple into making my life easier, and the more people doing the same the better. Just because they can get away with this sort of thing, and it makes logical sense for them to do so doesn't mean that's the way things have to stay. A better ecosystem for Apple developers is a better ecosystem for their end-users, down the line, anyway.
