[OT] Gatekeeper

[Andrew Henshaw]

Yes it will,  ive had an app rejected for writing to the preferences folder.

I stick with ~/Library/Application Support/<app-identifier> and just put everything in there.

From June 1st there is also sandboxing to contend with for the Mac App Store,  but I understand sandboxing and the gatekeeper are two totally separate requirements,  If I understand correctlt the gatekeeper just needs the code to be signed and it does not need to be sandboxed.

If you want to submit an app to the app store however look at sandboxing as well as that opens up another small bag of spanners!
