Subject: Re: PhoneGap app rejected by Apple for using "private API"
Has anyone considered an open source Objective C based template for at
least the basic external URL loading in UIWebView? I'd do it myself
but am the worst programmer I know - which is how I found PhoneGap to
begin with.

At least the ones with external sites to load would still get in the
store.

Disclaimer: this request is very self-serving.
