Although, this might be the way to find a good developer-offer to pay for their license!
Now, I had that same idea. Great minds think alike!

The problem is that one of the main advantages of an app would be the large publicity,
as well as the mentioned upload ability. A web app would go unnoticed except by those who
visit the site anyway and so would not be worth it.
The SDK charge is £100 off the top of my head. I think we either need to find a
developer with an account or apply for the Wikimedia Fpundation to pay and then keep the
account and release the app under the name of 'The Community'. Although, this
might be the way to find a good developer-offer to pay for their license!
Over the next few days, can everybody keep an eye out for mentions of developers that
might be willing to do it for free. I have a few possibilities as well.

I've thought about making an iPhone application – or at least attempt to – for a
while now. The barrier that I had was paying the SDK.
Bawolff is right, developing a MobileSafari application would be free-er (and allow other
WebKit-based devices ::cough:: Andriod ::cough:: to also get it nicely), but iPhone users
like their native applications.
Being native would also allow photo/video uploads and location-aware support, something
that we can't do in MobileSafari.

From what i understand, apple charges money for the right to develop
iphone apps (according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/App_Store#iPhone_SDK ), so preferably
we'd have to find someone who already develops such apps and thus
already paid the fee. (Perhaps developing web applications are free?)

there are better news sources out there?

Subject: [Wikinews-l] iPhone Application
I've been thinking, that it would be awesome if we could get an iPhone
application. It could bring literally thousands of new readers and
hundreds of new contributors. I would imagine something like the Sky
News app, except maybe with audio instead of video and a proper, fully
fledged section for people to send in their stories. We could get
people around the world contributing from their mobiles, with
pictures(and videos!) where they are. I've attached a screenshot of
the
Sky News app for those interested.
Is anyone on Wikinews capable of programming an iPhone app or knows
someone who is. Alternatively, might we be able to find someone on
Wikipedia etc. who would be willing to do it, if only to add to
their "cv"?
Thoughts?
Tristan Thomas
