Is MonoTouch now banned on the iPhone? [closed]

by

Update –

This changed recently. MonoTouch should no longer conflict with
the agreement. Any statements below are purely historical!

Yes, it seems pretty clear from their license agreement now that if the original application is written in C# then it would be violating the license:

…Applications must be originally written in Objective-C, C, C++, or JavaScript as executed by the iPhone OS WebKit engine…

They even hammer it in a little further:

Applications that link to Documented APIs through an intermediary translation or compatibility layer or tool are prohibited

Kind of a bummer, MonoTouch and the Flash CS5 -> iPhone converter are very cool.
