This is an embarrassing situation and I can only be compassionate.

There is a lesson here: the Apple process of approval is not agile enough.

Once the initial version has been approved, subsequent "minor" version should get an immediate "default approval".

That's the proper way for Apple to build some trust relationship with their developers.

Of course, some people could abuse that system, but that's easy to monitor (like when there is a sudden increase in sales just after a "minor update")




What is a 'minor version upgrade' and how do you propose Apple automates that process? Surely you don't expect that stealing your address book would prompt the developer to make the app a v2 because of the extra functionality?
