Yikes. We have a version awaiting review that migrates us off udids. We need the udid for one last login before they get an oauth token. Perhaps we will get lucky and apple won't test a migration bc fresh installs don't use it. This really sucks, we were following the rules and they changed the schedule.
That's unfortunate, I hope things work out for you.
To other developers, this is an inherent risk of working under somebody else's rules. Open platforms like the web are in constant flux, but won't reject you for political/monetary reasons.

Yes, but the alternative might be something like a cesspool of everybody squirting out their UDID either in plaintext or using encryption with an easily findable key in the app -- resulting in lots of counterfeiting of UDIDs and potentially lots of bad things enabled by that.
I hear it is only a percentage of apps being rejected so far (some percentage of the approval team being told to check/reject apps using UDID calls). So, you might make it through anyway.
