Chris,
My understanding of the original intent of SDKs was to remove the dependency between the tools and what they compile against. Since iOS was released, the SDKs and developer tools have been tightly coupled to, I believe, the detriment of the tools.
Can you give us an idea of what sort of qualifications that the SDKs need to go through with a specific version of the dev tools that leads them to be so tightly coupled?
