Thanks for clarification, Chris!
Although I like the idea that AppleIstore is/do not allowed to use GPL software, in this special case it is a pain, that the great OMEMO (Axolotl) protocol cannot be ported to any of the iOS Apps.....and thus is been hindered to become a more widespread alternative for XMPP...at least for iPhone users...which I unfortunately have in my circle of friends...

@chrisballinger Do you think there will be a breakthrough in porting OMEMO to any iOS App in the next....months? Or should we lay it to the graves?

btw: What I don't understand: e.g. Whattsapp also uses Axolotl encryption of TextSecure/Signal/OpenWhisperSystem, which also should be licensed under GPL, but is allowed in the AppleStore?
Where is the difference? Here are some more infos about, but not that I do understand it in detail :-/

Uh oh!
