As soon as I saw this headline I thought that the comments would be instantly split into 3 views.

- The Apple Fanboys who say it isn't such a big deal

- The haters looking for any excuse to heap ire upon Apple

- The rest of us who are still confused as to why Apple hasn't released the NDA and the fallout that is happening as a result of it.

Glad to see this submission delivers as originally thought.

I'm #3, but my guess is that nobody @ Apple with a clue's responsible for the app dev program. The NDA & the app store absurdity are unusually dumb for apple. Whomever (is anyone?) is at top-level control of all this is seriously screwing up the potential for the next big platform.

But they probably think it's irrelevant b/c the iPhone sales are still doing fine.
