It’s been an exhilarating week releasing MarsEdit 5. The last thing I expected was that I’d be facing the end of the week still wondering why the app is stuck in Mac App Store app review. Unfortunately I don’t when or if it will be approved. The opacity is very frustrating.

Things on the Mac App Store have gone very smoothly for me the past several years, but this is a reminder of how hard it is when suddenly there is nothing you can do. I’m nearing a panic about how to serve my customers who purchased on the App Store and who are waiting patiently.
