ahh yes that definition of RJDJ is clear now...
It's nice have Pd ported to here and there but perhaps time need to sort of licence matters would not make it worth it.
I remember using Pd for the old ipods via ipod linux- that was a really good project,

why not port ipad, ipod, iphone upud, ipid etc?
In any case isnt RJDJ the port for Pd to this platform anyway ? I could

wrong- not 100%
I wouldn't say it's a port of of Pd, not as an application. It's a port of Pd to support a specific application class with its own interfaces.
The GUI for Pd on a tablet would be quite different anyway, to take advantage of that device's touch gestures, a direct port of the keyboard oriented interface would miss an opportunity.
Regarding Apple, who are only one manufacturer of mobile and tablet devices; I think this is a moral issue that can be easily settled by watching this famous advertisement,

and comparing the stance implied there with their position 25 years later.
