To make this possible Apple

To make this possible Apple should either change their rules for applications or create a whitelist. But I think they will do nothing.
The main problem is the impossibility to download executable. But there is another way. It is possible to create iOS application which will contain science application inside as *.so files. But this will make this app real huge (of course if many projects will create the *.so file from their application). Another problem with this is the updates. If some project want to update their *.so they should ask iOS application developer to create new version of BOINC app and publish it.
If someone will be interested in this you can contact me anytime by skype (aenvampire). We can create a team to develop such application and to help projects to create *.so for iOS.
