[Qt-interest] Qt apps in Apple Mac Store?

As others stated, it is just like the iPhone.

This keeps Apple in the loop, and keeps them under control. An independent 
auto-updater would allow people to side-step Apple, and load "unapproved" code 
which could then do any number of evil things. Not that Apple stops you, but 
that they can pull your app for misbehaving. 


I also think that any QtScript script cannot be fetched. It must be supplied and 
updated with your application.

Then I guess Apple supplies autoupdate APIs, right? And one *have to* use these, 

is this the case?
Or is autoupdate optional, I think is not, but might be wrong?
