1. Why are you using Garbage Collection? The GC runtime will be outright removed from OS X in 10.12. You absolutely cannot use this - convert it to ARC.
2. Why does this need root to build?
3. Why the self-signed certificates?
4. Don't use specific versions of OS X SDKs. Have all targets always use the latest OS X SDK available on the build machine.

5. The application menu still has a bunch of document app related items (File > New, etc.) that look like they probably have no use in Pallet
6. The Info window shows white boxes until you hover over them


7. Close main Pallet window -> Authorization prompt (what??) -> Cancel -> SIGABRT
