		<title>Rooms is back! Not a happy end, but at least something&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night (here in Germany &#8211; afternoon in US) some people told me that they already saw an update in the store but could not download it yet. So I went into iTunesConnect and saw Rooms finally &#8220;green&#8221; and available! It then just needed some time waiting to get all stores up to date. So what was wrong? Honestly I still don&#8217;t know yet. Just 3 days ago I got an idea. I reread my diary of those 3 months [...]]]></description>

		<title>I think I should give up here&#8230; WORST review evar [Updated]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sad news again! Most of you already know about the stupid pull of Rooms from the stores (for which I still, after so many days, have no official answer/reason). And most of you also have read the story when I tried to get it back in, absurdly needed another &#8220;complete review&#8221; for this and so decided to put my recent (ready) new multitasking feature into it already. It worked fine here for weeks but Apple though said NO and rejected [...]]]></description>

		<title>A design question · Multitasking for everyone? Nope… not for Rooms :-( [update2]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dear users, I&#8217;m really sorry to say that Apple decided to reject my recent update. First and foremost this is really sad, because this update should have made much better use of the great iOS&#8217; Multitasking feature! I&#8217;ve worked my ass off to make it as adjustable as I could by the user, so YOU could decide for yourself, how long you want to stay online on IRC. There were options for: letting the OS decide itself which time is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rooms just vanished from the AppStore?! What the &#8230;? [issue found + resumé]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi there, I REALLY don&#8217;t know what happened yet. There&#8217;s no information or email from Apple. They seemed to have just pulled Rooms from all stores in the world without any hint or reason&#8230; In the last update &#8211; which also fixed its compatibility against iOS 4.0+ &#8211; I removed all private API calls as requested by Apple. Some customers got mad because it now didn&#8217;t stay connected anymore like it did for ages, BUT I did what Apple requested [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rooms 1.4 JUST got approved</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This time I&#8217;ve to say: PRAISE Apples review team! Expedited Review was granted and Rooms already got through the successful review and it should be in the app store in some minutes! What now? The bad news first: The reason for the expedited review/update request was a crash of Rooms right from the start,  after updating the iPhone/iPod to iOS 4.0. This was because of a feature you all liked alot and which I will really miss, now I had [...]]]></description>

		<title>iOS 4.0 is out &#8211; what the heck? Room is crashing :-/</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now that iOS 4.0 is out, everybody will ask &#8216;Why the heck does Rooms crash right from the start?&#8217; At first I&#8217;ve to say sorry for that! An update/fix is already in review and waits for its approval! I&#8217;ve also sent an &#8216;Expedited App Review Request&#8217;, but I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m actually not the only one with that request on Apple… So why does it crash? The reason for this is a feature you all liked alot and which I will [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rooms and the 3.0 Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now the update is online I can almost hear my customers screaming that Rooms failes at 3.0 But actually I have to say that this is NOT Rooms fault. Apple just made some changes to the UIWebview which displays the chat content of Rooms and these changes came with a little bug. Some Details: The WebView loads an initial html template for the chat and Rooms waits until that html is fully loaded using the &#8216;webViewDidFinishLoad:&#8217; delegate method. But in [...]]]></description>

		<title>No more emoji?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Actually I&#8217;m reading everywhere about Apples&#8217; Emoji take-down&#8230; Strangely &#8211; or should I say luckily  &#8211; I didn&#8217;t get any mail from Apple yet . Erica Sadun on ArsTechnica assumed that Apple may have some good reasons to do so, but personally I am really unhappy with Apples decision! Cause in some recent update I&#8217;ve added a great feature of ChatCore (the underlaying chat framework) to Rooms which uses Emojis in a really useful way. It parses the chat [...]]]></description>
