Before I begin ranting I have much appreciation for the jailbreaker devs. for what they do and in no way bashing them.
My question is what is the process that a these jailbreaker developers do to create a jailbreak? Are they reading through lines of code looking for a weakness or something? 4.2 has been out officially for a few days now while 4.2 beta's have been out quite a while. Wouldn't that give Cydia plenty of time to make their platform 4.2 compatible? These guys say iOS4 is forever going to be jailbroken a lot quicker yet it doesn't seem like that. Granted 4.2 has nothing major for iPhone users but a lot of people love having the latest software. So does it really take that long for Cydia to work for 4.2 and for jailbreak devs to find a fix for the tethered issue? That's why I ask whats the process or what is done to look/find/create a successful jailbreak app?
