We are working on a stylish screensaver that we would like to publish on the upcoming mac app store. Do you think it will be possible to release a screensaver? We reviewed the draft guidelines but still not sure about it.
Thanks, Renaud
No you can't. It requires the app to create files outside its area. There are plenty of restrictions in the App development guidelines which prohibit that. I think you need authorisation for that which is also a recipe for rejection.
From June all apps has to be sandboxed which makes it even more impossible.
