Apple's iOS app review guidelines

[Kenneth Van Wyk <ken () krvw com>]

Greetings SC-L,

I read the news this morning with a lot of hope -- that Apple has finally published their app review guidelines for iOS 
app developers.  But then I read the document.

For starters, I did a quick grep for: security, secure, crypt, safe.  Nothing.  Nada.

The document is essentially a big long black list of what things not to do.  There seems to be nothing in the way of 
prescriptive guidance on what TO do.

Not inspiring...  :-\  I was really hoping Apple would take this opportunity to include some actionable security 
guidance, but that wasn't the case.  Of course, they did say that they don't want any more "Fart apps"...  Great.

Cheers,

Ken
