-------------------------------
Thanks. I appreciate you taking the time to address my questions in this matter.
In the user registration screen in my app, I'm sending the device.uuid to the
server as part of the new user credentials. Later, when a user is authorized by
their manager to use the app and tries to log in, I'm sending the uuid as part
of the credentials. If the uuid matches what is stored in the DB, the user is
allowed to log in. Otherwise, their manager needs to approve the new device
(which is a requirement that came from the product manager, as my application
allows access to sensitive information, and it's vital for the manager to know
from where the employee accesses this information).
Apple has approved my app in April which was running Phonegap 1.2, even though
I'm using device.uuid.
I understand your concern that Apple might reject apps using device.uuid, but
unfortunately I cannot wait for the release of 2.0.
As Apple have already approved my app once, I think I'll try my luck again, but
this time with:
if (!ios6)
[UIDevice uniqueIdentifier]
else
[UIDevice identifierForVendor]
as a plugin. Hopefully they won't reject my app.
Do you know of any tutorial on how to write plugins for Cordova 1.8 for iOS and
Android? I can't seem to find any.

> As you might have read iOS 5 will remove the UDID
> (http://techcrunch.com/2011/08/19/apple-ios-5-phasing-out-udid/).
> This is an excellent alternative and it would be nice if you would implement
> something along these lines to keep the functionality. The idea of hashing
> together with the bundle id is great, because it makes it impossible to track
> across applications, which is what apple wanted to fix (although it can be
> circumvented that would only anger them, and tracking across apps isn't
> required for most apps anyway).
