I propose ShareKit moves to using [ARC](http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#releasenotes/ObjectiveC/RN-TransitioningToARC/_index.html).

> Automatic Reference Counting (ARC) is a compiler feature that provides automatic memory management of Objective-C objects. Rather than having to think about about retain and release operations, ARC allows you to concentrate on the interesting code, the object graphs, and the relationships between objects in your application.

[Nimbus](https://github.com/jverkoey/nimbus), another popular iOS framework, is currently converting their codebase to ARC.
