Hell freezes over

Wer hätte das gedacht: Apple machte gestern bekannt, daß sie von nun an doch cross-kompilierte Inhalte für iPhone und iPad zulassen werden -- dies hatte Apple vor einigen Monaten in einem ihrer SDK-Agreement-Updates blockiert:
"In particular, we are relaxing all restrictions on the development tools used to create iOS apps, as long as the resulting apps do not download any code. This should give developers the flexibility they want, while preserving the security we need."
Man darf gespannt sein, ob sich nun eine Flut von Flash-Apps anbahnt.



Hell freezes over
Lo and behold! Apple announced just yesterday that they are going to relax their rules for cross-compiled content on iPhone and iPad:
"In particular, we are relaxing all restrictions on the development tools used to create iOS apps, as long as the resulting apps do not download any code. This should give developers the flexibility they want, while preserving the security we need."
It'll be exciting to see if there will be a flood of Flash-Apps and how this going to influence the future of HTML5
