So, if there is an appeal button to click, I would definitely favor that over this change. In my opinion, this is clearly a false-positive — the concept of "contributing" to open-source software is not some sort of new and foreign concept. I have no particular interest in whether or not anyone "views" our source code (although it's nice that they can). What I would love is if they opened issues, forked the code, or opened PRs.
On the second part, we should find some way to persist those plist values in our source code somewhere. Otherwise, we'll likely hit this stumbling block again if someone else builds the iOS app, or even if you get a new laptop at some point. You can use a hook to copy values from config.xml
into *-Info.plist
and AndroidManifest.xml
files. Alternatively, for a less general (but better maintained) solution, the plugin discussed in #474 takes care of these two specific plist values for you.
I also want to temper my philosophical objection with some facts too. I think a more active sounding "call to action" is a good thing :tm:, but also only 12 people have exited the site via that page in the last year. Some of those 12 went to GitHub, but some of them could have ended up on the Wikipedia page for "Compassion."
Okie dokie, I'll close this. I will submit an appeal for the first portion, and use a hook for the second part. Thanks @werebus. For the long term solution, I'll square away a day to get the plugin done.
So apple doesn't reject our build. The second half (reasoning for accessing location) is done in xCode: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47749667/add-description-to-permission-modal-alert
