    Sunlit 1.3 is a little delayed because it was rejected by Apple for opening Safari to let the user sign in. We've appealed the rejection. See also: Craig Hockenberry's post [furbo.org] on why it's a security risk to use embedded web views.

        @manton Great to see Sunlit getting an update!

            @manton They’ve rejected quite a few people for that, despite the risk, haven’t they?

                @jussipekonen Thanks! It's a fairly minor update, but I was glad to finally take some time to work on it.

                    @clarkgoble Yes, I know Twitterrific ran into the same kind of thing last year. I don't think it's a good policy.

                        @manton I don’t either - I wonder what Apple’s solution will be (if anything). It’s times like this I wish they were more communicable.

                            @clarkgoble It seems they don’t have even a cursory infosec audit as part of submission. Not too surprising to see inconvenient security maneuvers losing to UX flow then. Disappointing relative to walled garden justifications though. @manton
