It is great that desktop applications are now allowed. But section 9.1(b) says : "your Maps API Implementation must not: ... (b) operate only behind a firewall or only on an internal network (except during the development and testing phase)."
What the heck does that mean? Who doesn't have a firewall of some kind, either at home or in their workplace? Is a user of such a desktop app required to open his desktop PC to the Internet without protection?
