      Times like these are why I’d love to see a public-facing VP of App Store at Apple:http://www.imore.com/editors-desk-vp-app-store …

      @reneritchie so he/she would either be paraded through Moscone on dev shoulders or be the subject of scorn and hatred....

      @SammyWalrusIV My hope is it would unify processes internally resulting in less confusion and ill-will externally.

      @reneritchie when do you think these issues will actually start to cause long-term damage to the ecosystem? Not a ton evidence either way.

      @SammyWalrusIV @reneritchie Many of the battle-hardened developers who should be building the best, most innovative apps have been burnt.

      @drbarnard @reneritchie what are the alternatives though (or lack thereof)? Almost seems like Apple clearly understands that dynamic.

      @SammyWalrusIV @reneritchie The problem isn’t the developers are leaving the platform, it’s the apps/features that don’t get built.

          @drbarnard @reneritchie but I would the assume motivation, imagination, and desire remain elevated, no? Where is it going? Wasting away?

          @SammyWalrusIV @drbarnard Where are all the hugely innovative, world changing apps on Android? That would cause significant pressure.

          @reneritchie @SammyWalrusIV @drbarnard agreed. Bit that's long term cost. Upfront still expensive
