##JailbreakQA [un]official mobile application

This is a very early attempt of making JailbreakQA mobile and easier to read/reply/ask without dealing with JailbreakQA's desktop site on MobileSafari.

While this may not be very useful to your average jailbreaker, it might come in handy for us (The volunteers at JailbreakQA). That being said, this app may or may not be submitted to a Cydia repository.

Why I did this? The subject kept coming up. I figured maybe this would be a neat idea.

##Contribution

The app is open sourced with the intent that you, developers, will contribute to finishing this application. I certainly can't do it alone, and >1 developers are better than 1.

So.. Please feel free to contribute to this app by forking it & submitting pull requests to this repository.

##How it works

How this works is almost too simple. JBQA (which runs on OSQA) has an RSS Feed (@kirbylover4000 pointed that out). The XML is simply parsed and corresponding data is added to an array, which is in turn displayed on a table.

##Compile Instructions Link it with MobileCoreServices, SystemConfiguration, and CFNetwork frameworks; also link with libz.dylib. Add the ASIHTTPRequest folder into the project, and then add all implementation (.m) files to the compile sources build phase with the compiler flag "-fno-objc-arc" Do all of this, and you should be able to compile just fine. (Just ignore the incomplete implementation warning for ASIHTTPRequest).

##To-Do List

There's a lot of work to be done! Here is the things I have in mind:

• Create a nice, native-looking, clean interface
• Implement logging in to your account (May require a bit of HTML Parsing)
• Add a feature to ask/reply/comment on questions (May require a bit of HTML Parsing)
• Add comments/answers view (easy with some RSS parsing)
• Properly format questions in a neat, clean UI
• Load unanswered/newest/most voted questions
• Load more questions in the list (currently loads first 30)

P.S: This project uses ARC.
