What, over and above the HIG and the Style Guide?
What's the f*cking point of them then?

I feel your frustration at times, but ultimately guidelines are just that; they're not requirements.

The release team can always veto the inclusion of any app that they don't think has made enough of an effort to follow them, but to be honest it's kind of hard to argue for that measure on the basis of what (in this case) was/is basically a single violation, when you could point the finger at other apps with a much bigger rap *** if you enforced the guidelines to the letter.

Cheeri,
