I'm not patronizing you. I'm just taking nothing for granted about
who understands what. It's a necessary evil in low-bandwidth
communication.

Not so:
13.5 Waiver; Construction. Failure by Apple to enforce any
provision of this License will not be deemed a waiver of future
enforcement of that or any other provision.
If Apple fails to make the given web site available, then it is
failing to enforce the notification clause. That doesn't mean you
can't distribute, it just means that the notification clause is in
abeyance until Apple puts the site back up.
And Apple doesn't specify a time line for notification, either.

Hm. Thanks for the clue. As with export control, it seems like
attempting to restate law in a license is a Bad Idea.
