This is, frankly speaking, completely ridiculous. People have questions, nobody is answering. It appears that nobody at Apple is reading these posts, or bothering to give any answers.
This forum does not serve its intended purpose. You can't get help here, except perhaps for the most trivial of things (which an experienced developer would often find out by himself from the documentation or google anyway.)
And the thing is, I can't find any other forum with any more knowledgeable people either. This is frustrating.
If this is the wrong forum to ask these questions, then can you please redirect me to some other forum where people actually know these things and are willing to answer? Sheesh.
