In the linked thread it is not obvious that it was meant that a developer can not un-publish an application. I understood it as being about un-publishing source code released under GPL. In your case, did you manage to get in touch with the publisher of your app ? (and even if he could not unpublish, he can at the very least update the application description to explain the case...) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
