Simon the Sorcerer on iPhone App Store - GPL Violation?

Post by Jacksteruk309 »

Hi folks,

I just bought Simon the Sorcerer on the iPhone App Store and noticed that it says in the description that it uses ScummVM. It's a pretty good port, but I'm pretty sure I've heard that GPL v2 and v3 are incompatible with the App Store's terms and condition, so should iPhSoft really be using ScummVM in their Simon port?

Just thought I'd raise this issue and see what others think.

Apparently not.
There is a thread running about this app already here.
