Not to mention, that it is a 3rd party that uploaded the application, and that Apple distributed the application.
One copyright holder asked filed a request for infringement, two months ago; and Apple has refused to help to discuss and solve the matter. And then, pulled the application...
And, you don't see people from VLC complaining.
I don't see why you are so aggressive on this matter.
But you say there is no VLC ("Who is 'you guys'?") from which people could complain.
This just looks slippery, and is the sort of thing that is likely to discourage businesses from working with GPL code at all.
You did not have a hand in authoring the iPad app, correct?
You submitted a claim to Apple about clauses in the GPL not being compatible with the App Store's distribution model, correct?
In my original statement, I don't think I made any point that could be considered "wrong". I stated one fact (a 3rd party developed the app) followed by my opinion. I'm sorry you don't think my opinion is 'correct', but that doesn't mean I'm going to bet against the proliferation of GPL'd software because of these actions.
Yes

No. Because I personally think it is compatible with the GPL. But I need a clear answer from Apple to convince other developers, that don't think so.
