Re: Wesnoth Apple App Store GPL violation?

I'd like to strongly reiterate this comment from Oron Pered.   
Immediate ultimatums will do nothing but destroy the project.

I would also caution the hardline FSF-types that the majority of the  
artists/musicians on this project, most of whom use macs (or windows),  
are probably more in support of Apple, than the FSF.  We do not see a  
conflict between the GPL and the iOS, and we'd be outraged if you take  
wesnoth away from us in order to strive for a slightly more  
fundamentalist interpretation of the GPL.  Removing our ability to run  
the software we have built, on the platform we want, just because you  
dislike the platform, flies in the face of everything the GPL has ever  
stood for.


I strongly encourage everyone to give us time to come to -amenable-  
terms over this, rather than demanding immediate, destructive  
changes.  If we demand something that large parts of the project are  
unhappy with, it will split the project apart, and halt all further  
development.  If that happens, everyone loses.
