Apple Rejects iPhone BitTorrent App

,----[ Quote ]
| Citing copyright infringement concerns, Apple won’t include a BitTorrent 
| client in the App Store. 
| 
| The Cupertino-based electronics company rejected Maza Digital’s Drivetrain, 
| saying “this category of applications is often used for the purpose of 
| infringing third-party rights. We have chosen to not publish this type of 
| application to the App Store.”

Apple patent claim threatens to block or delay W3C specification

,----[ Quote ]
| Early last month, it became clear that Apple might be causing trouble for the
| W3C Widgets specification. They are unwilling to make patent 5,764,992 (W3C
| information), which covers automatic software upates, royalty-free if the
| Widgets Update specification is found to use anything covered by the patent.
| This basically means a lot of additional work for the Working Group at the
| W3C, and might slow down the process of finalizing the widgets specification.
