May I suggest...
Instead we form an Apple Developers Association, I mean a real one. One
run by the developers and not Apple.
As a group we would have real clout. The way things are now, we each
deal with Apple as an individual or individual company. This makes it
easy for Apple to dismiss our opinions as unimportant.
When I first started programming, each make of computer sold had a
strong, independent user organization that had a lot of influence with
the computer manufacturer. (Of course this was 40+ years ago, and back
then each user had to be a developer as well, which meant 100 percent of
the users were developers :-) )
One of the main reasons that I started programming in Cocoa, (then
Yellow Box), was that Apple said many times... "If you develop in Yellow
Box, your applications will run on Mac AND Windows". When they "changed
their minds", as a single developer, I was just stuck!
