Times change. Were developers mad when DOS was killed off for Windows? It's progress... If you don't want to do JS, then hack on the Pre from a rooted device, and have some fun in good ole GNU/Linux. Or find a different mailing list to go to and a new development system to develop on. If you don't like the 100% Palm controlled appstore, you could always develop for iPhone, on the off chance that you own a Mac. Oh wait... hm... You NEED a Mac PC AND you can still only redistribute in the iPhone apps store. Way to go for bashing Palm again, guys. Or you could release your apps as obfuscated source, or powered mostly by a backend, and let people compile things for their 'testing environment' and legally sideload them. Just because webOS killed your market for hacks, Dmitry, doesn't mean that it is a worthless platform, or anything like that. The guys at Palm did a heck of a job on mojo, and just because it's OMGNOWTF JAVASCRIPT SUX LOL doesn't make it any less of a platform than the ObjC iCrap or Java Android application suites.

Re: Palm WebOS SDK publicly available
Anyway, since this has become an OT thread (on a dead list), I might as well hijack it. Anyone know any details on when/how devs like up will be able to distribute apps? Will it be free, or will they be stupid like apple and charge a $99 fee? You can already submit free apps. I heard that paid submissions will be starting August.

Anyone know any details on when/how devs like up will be able to distribute apps? Will it be free, or will they be stupid like apple and charge a $99 fee? The only public statement is in the fall. But they will be putting free apps up now and haven't indicated a charge for that. We don't know whether there'll be a charge in the future for free or chargeable apps. Since they'll incur a resource cost on evaluating apps for inclusion in the App Catalog it'd make sense to make a small charge submissions, but that's just me extrapolating.
