Method for application authoring employing a pre-certified multi-platform master application template, Appl No: 20110023016
Method and apparatus for modifying an executable application using in-memory object representation, Appl No: 20110023014
Method for distributing a certified application employing a pre-certified master application template, Appl No: 20110023012
Method and system for authoring multiple application versions based on audience qualifiers, Appl No: 20110022637
Method and system for authoring and distributing multiple application versions based on audience qualifiers, Appl No: 20110022603

Does the prior art submitted for one application apply to the other applications, based on the Claims?

Wouldn't this method create the problem of eventually having to modify the original source code (once you have access to it) to account for the modifications made in the executable? While this may make it easier to make small modifications here and there, larger changes or developments will have to be done with the source code so the source code would have to be up-to-date with the changes made in the executable.
