MultiPeerConnectivity under iOS 14
Hey, I have an app I've been experimenting with on iOS 13 that uses MultiPeerConnectivity. After upgrading to iOS 14 on one of my devices and using Xcode 12 this app no longer works. As outlined in "Support local network privacy in your app" I've added a description with NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription in Info.plist. Since the app uses Bonjour advertisting and browsing via MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser and MCNearbyServiceBrowser I've also added the service name via NSBonjourServices to Info.plist. It's my understanding that this should be enough to make browsing and advertising work. What I am observing is that when I call startAdvertisingPeer on my instance of MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser I am not seeing the local network permission prompt instead I see the following error in the console. 2020-06-27 13:26:54.634264+0100 MultiPeerTest[18970:1571288] [MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser] Server did not publish: errorDict [{		 NSNetServicesErrorCode = "-72000";		 NSNetServicesErrorDomain = 10; }]. Further my app is not showing up under Settings > Privacy > Local Network on my iPadOS 14 device. I looked at the TicTacToe example which declares the bonjour service _tictactoe._tcp as its Bonjour Service but this seems to violate the Bonjour specification for service type as described in the documentation for MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser. My code is roughly localPeer = MCPeerID.init(displayName: deviceName)				 advertiser = MCNearbyServiceAdvertiser( peer: localPeer, discoveryInfo: [:], serviceType: "my-service" )				 browser = MCNearbyServiceBrowser( peer: localPeer, serviceType: "my-service" ) browser.startBrowsingForPeers() advertiser.startAdvertisingPeer() Environment: Xcode 12 Beta(12A6159) iPad Pro(10.5", 2017) running iPadOS 14.0 Beta

Regarding changes in timeline for tracking permissions
Per https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=hx9s63c5 the point when apps will have to acquire permission to track is moving forward to "early next year". Based on this what are the implication of linking against the app tracking transparency framework ahead of that date? Do we have to remove any code using the framework ahead of the Xcode GM or can we leave it dormant until 2021?

App Bound Domains Limit
Hey, we'd like to use App Bound domains - https://webkit.org/blog/10882/app-bound-domains/ for cases when we open our own domains in our app. However, the current limit of 10 app bound domains is unworkable. We currently have 45 domains(they differ per market), as we add more markets we are only likely to have more, not fewer, domains. Will the limit of 10 be lifted in the future? I am also curious if App Bound domains will eventually become mandatory for WKWebView outside of browsers? Thanks, Hugo
