> What the gpl claims to do for Users or developers is irrelevant.
Indeed it isn't, we weren't even talking only about GPL. We were discussing that claims about Apple "opening up to FOSS" are bogus, until they'll fix the glaring examples of being hostile to FOSS, like above.
> Is it because of an apple rule or is it because gpl3 says the developer can't do that?
It's clearly caused by Apple's restriction on the store, since there is no problem releasing GPL software from many other stores and repositories.
