Yes.
I'd like someone in Apple's QA - anyone at all - to dig up and read
the MacTCP 1.1 Test Plan that I wrote back around 1990 - or maybe it
was 1.2, I don't recall now.
Were anyone at Apple to write test plans like that in any way, maybe I
would not file a Radar pointing out that Apple flatly refuses to
permit me to register as an iOS Developer, then two and a half months
later, it has yet to be triaged.
Look Man: I've been bleeding in six colors, since well before most of
today's Apple employees were even born.
My hope is to submit an _already_ complete App to the App Store, but I
_cannot_ do so, until I can change my developer type from Corporate to
Individual. To do so would be a State of California Felony, as
operation of a "Suspended Corporation" is regarded as a form of Money
Laundering.
One would think that a Corporate membership having been expired well
over a year, with the Corporation itself having ceased doing business
quite a lot before that, would enable me now to register as an
Individual, but no: it cannot be done.
Go ask anyone at all who knows about the work I was doing at Apple
from 1989 to 1991, whether Apple Inc. would have any hope of existing
today, had I not worked at Apple Computer Inc. back then. Anyone who
knows anything at all about that work, would support my assertion that
it would not.
