I always thought it's other way around, non-intrusive _libraries_ like Growl should be backward compatible (at least with the clients in growlized apps), instead of nagging all the growl supporting apps to do a release and having all the growl users waiting for that to happen (and explaining they cannot interfere with how the apps are built and released).
What would be fair if Growl page in AppStore would state: "Please realize, that Growl 1.3 does not support currently any application as of today, until all of those (Dropbox, Skype, etc) do a release where they update Growl support". That as the 1st line. Ah yes, also "Since AppStore policies does not allow pref panes, we made this an app, and as many apps in the wild, our paw icon is not removable either". But at least _explain_ this about prefs pane, I got knowledge about it by googling. Naturally, we made you pay for all this above :D C'mon, this is a joke, right? Or you wanted Growl 2.0 (that would "kinda" justify the backward compat problem?) but it looked better as 1.3? Could somebody technical at least explain _what_ is the problem instead responding with "X app needs a release, there is a beta build of it already".... I don't want to use Betas because I upgraded Growl....
