Hi, I see that Enable Newsstand is possible when building a new app for iOS. But isn't it Apple's plan to remove published apps from Newsstand - or News or whatever the name might be...?

Yes, Apple has announced that NewStand is going away. However, that option had been built in prior to that announcement. I'd imagine it will probably go away in an upcoming build.

While Newsstand is going away that won't be until iOS9. We still have to offer support for it in the product until then, and likely for a little while after, until the majority of iOS users upgrade to the new OS version.
