Writing setuid helper tools is not relevant to the Cocoa development
list?
From <http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/cocoa-dev>:
"The Cocoa Development list is for discussions regarding native Mac OS
X application development using the Cocoa Frameworks: Foundation and
Application Kit. Cocoa is one of the principal application environments
for Mac OS X, based on advanced object oriented APIs that allow
development in Java and Objective-C. Subscribers to this list discuss
frameworks, features, and technical issues specific to Cocoa
application development."
If one were to apply a strict literal interpretation, then since this
is not "specific to Cocoa application development" then no, it's not.
It is, however, of at least tangential relevance, and is likely to be
of interest. What would be inappropriate (and what experience has
shown is prone to happen) would be, for example, discussion of the
relative merits of different security schemes on different operating
systems... Please make sure that discussion is kept relevant to
Cocoa/Mac OS X development.
