Things that give me hope: The response from Apple above says the word 'both', which is different from other responses on other threads, so it's a human being answering, not a bot Received new developer agreement email from Apple - something something China something something, so they're alive and well, they must know that we're having this issue The daily barrage of developers raising concerns on this forum about the delays The delay also seems to signify that it's humans reviewing apps, which I much prefer over any 100% automated review system I know a lot of us are waiting, me included, for the fruits of our labor and creativity to be unleashed into the world, and to hopefully earn some money from it. Hold on tight guys, I'm sure it will happen. I know some of us are actually losing money because of this delay. But since we have no other leverage, stay patient. I tell myself a month is nothing in the large scheme of things, right? Right?
