301 Robert McNallyWhatever your reasons for keeping the NDA around, I hope you're revisiting them as quickly as possible. Keep your reputation strong, Apple!
302 Matthew GuestLift it already, what's the problem? I can't get behind that!
303 Mitch CohenI think a few people should just pick a date, and if the NDA isn't lifted by that date, all Mac developers should simultaneously post all their podcasts, blog entries, and other info. They won't go after everyone and this is just plain silly.
304 Jeffrey KuehnhoffI am not a developer, but an end user. Nonetheless, I believe the NDA is having a negative impact on iPhone application development.
305 Alex Brofsky
306 Heinrich SpreiterWhy make the lifes of developers harder than necessary? You see, I've lost countless of hours figuring trivial stuff out. Stuff that would be published in books. This directly impacts quality of the apps. And as far as I know Apple stands for quality. But as more crappy apps get published because of the lack of books and communities, Apples reputation will go down. Do your self and us a favor and drop the NDA.

308 Gita LalEnd users will additionally benefit from the sharing of information between developers. They currently have to deal with what are potentially the same problems in various applications that either don't have to exist or could be eliminated much more quickly if developers could share their experiences and challenges with each other.

320 Bradley BozarthIndeed - given the freely downloadable nature of the SDK, it does Apple customers and developers a disservice to prevent developers from helping each other out.
321 Mika VarjonenSecrecy is no good for development environment. Developers need as much information, training, resources and peer support as possible in order to produce quality software and reduce the time it takes to get it out of the door. Microsoft is good at maintaining the developer community and support. Apple should try to achieve the same.

324 Marcus KarlssonI have developed on the Mac since many years. I'm doing Cocoa, have been doing both Carbon, Toolkit and TCL programming. I usually understand Apples decisions, but this time I simply can't. Software for the iPhone and iPod is what will make them not just big but great, so please Apple: Stop the NDA thing and let us play the ball. We are on the same team and we want Apple to succeed as much as you want.

327 Michael HamiltonHalting the porting of SDL (which is mostly complete from what I have read, but unable to be released due to NDA issues) is definitly putting a ridiculous and unnecessary barrier between the iPhone and possibly hundreds of quality 2d SDL games by various developers which could be much more easily ported if it were available.
328 Kåre MorstølThere is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be able to exchange information on how to best program for the iPhone. And I can't for the life of me understand why Apple don't want us to.

330 AnonymousWe'd love to develop open source software for the iPhone, it seems the NDA would make this very hard to do in public.
331 AnonymousYou are hurting iPhone development with the NDA, not helping it.

338 Takuma MoriPlease Apple: 1. Allow to publish books about iPhone SDK development. 2. Allow legal iPhone developer online/offline communities to develop. 3. Allow us to open our own source code.
339 SEGO TakayoshiI'm not developing iPhone App. Because N.D.A!
340 Makoto Kagano NDA for the future of iPhone.
341 Yuichi YoshidaPlease give us true iPhone.
342 Yuki Akamatsu
343 ANDO YasushiI need more information about the SDK before I start it.
344 Burton PoseyPlease remove the iPhone NDA. The persistence of it is hampering the ability for developers for the iPhone to freely share and communicate thoughts and ideas about how to make the bet iPhone applications possible. Thank you.
345 Eric AndersonTrying to go from C# to obj-C - try to load a 3d model... I'm getting there but it is not fun.
346 Jakob Dam Jensen
347 Shunji Yamaura
348 salexkiddPlease take off NDA!
349 Florin DumitrescuIt doesn't make sense anymore.
