Dean,

hmmm, your links actually support the view that you can NOT have an
open source iPhone app.
However, in this case it's not the main point. The main points are:
a) You can of course openly publish your own code. However, most people
will use Apple code and libraries which are covered by an NDA alongside
the license agreement
b) Since you usually cannot build your own app but have to go through
the App Store the usual OpenSource distribution model breaks apart. And
then there is no way to guarantee that you will be able to distribute an
app through the app store.

I I currently trying to figure out a way how you can manage that NDA
thing so that you can at least have a forum for people who have signed
that. Need to find time to REALLY CAREFULLY read those things, though.
