I understand that you're probably trying to get Reddit upvotes as well, but I think a link to the repo itself [0] would be better.

And a little critique about your code: you shouldn't set the ivar backing synthesized properties in your implementation (instance) methods. For example, in RDBrowserController.m doing

    self.webView = wv

(invoking the setter) rather than

    if (webView) [webView release];
    webView = wv;

is both shorter and universally safer, and prevents issues if you end up using Key-Value Observing down the road.

It's also safer to retain the new value before releasing the current value in setters you write yourself - this prevents setting to the same value repeatedly from releasing the object prior to retaining it.

The goal with linking right to the subreddit is that's where I'm coordinating the development effort. There's absolutely no benefit in getting reddit upvotes in a subreddit with 50 subscribers.
