macOS (and older OSX releases) are UNIX (see http://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3627.htm for certifications). Linux is not UNIX (its not certified - not many are - see http://www.opengroup

Frontex ( http://frontex.europa.eu ), its more of a co-ordination agency, but it does I believe have its own staff on secondment to it.

Can I ask, what are you folks using to generate your API documentation?

+1 for Pub Standards. Also, on the Apple/iOS side, a group of local (Irish and non-Irish) developers, called XCake meets monthly in the science gallery in Dublin. http://xcakelabs.com

Oh, thats really annoying. I don't have a fantastic connection myself at home. I'll look to use link conditioner to see if I can make re-connect more aggressive and try and solve your issue. Would be great if you hit us up on supp

Not at the moment, but possible in future. Can you let me know of an example stream?

Objective-C literals, that's all.

It is a great idea and should be possible so long as Apple is willing to approve an sandboxed app that accepts incoming connections (listens) on a port against the local interface.

Great feedback thanks. Agree with it all and working on the UI lag issue.

Fixed!

Indeed it is to get latest stations. I will update to SSL.

Right now, we don't do that. Its just a simple MP3 file that lasts for as long as you are recording a station. The problem with parsing the song title is that firstly, not all stations support it, and secondly, a lot of stations will p

Not only not approve, it physically won't work. The sandbox enforced partially at a kernel level will prevent the necessary low-level functions from working.

It does not at the moment. And not from the want of trying! Unfortunately the App Store sandbox does not yet allow you to detect the media keys being pressed. The old way of doing it uses a very low-level function that is not available for

It is a bit. Menubar radio players will all seem similar. I was a Radium user myself. It was the "record" function of this app that prompted me to make it. I wanted to record radio shows, budget speeches and a specific Dutch tranc

It is and its on our list (actually its on a git branch). Just didn't make it across the line for v1. As a stop gap we have this in our FAQ: Radio currently doesn't directly support Airplay. However, if you'd really like to s

And getting {radioformac dot com} was just plain luck. Cost us €5.99. Try getting any dot com domain with radio in the word is just nuts. So again, we saw that as a sign!

Sure. Nothing sneaky or anything like that. We were of course tossing around app names. Anything but "iRadio" :-) Nothing was sticking and people were asking me how we were getting on with the "Radio" personal project. I

Will defo do that. Radio connects to a plist file on startup so we can push new stations to it. Thanks for the links. Getting a decent list of stations was one of the most frustrating aspects of the project. That and catering for WMA based

I was pretty pleased that Apple had no issue with the name!

That's a good idea. Will try and get that up there.
