Question about GameSalad Direct!

Hi, i have a couple of question about gamesalad direct, i sent a mail to the gamesalad staff so while i'm waiting their answer i make the same question in here. (sorry my english)
Before, you make a game with gamesalad, you create an apple's account and you upload your game to the app store, and if you sell some games, the 30% goes to apple and the 70% for you, right?
Now, i make a game with gamesalad direct and instead creating an apple's account and uploading my game myself, i just give my game to the people of gamesalad and they take care of uploading my game in his apple's account and then if you sell games the 30% goes to apple and gamesalad take a cut from that 70%, is like that?
If that's true and if i dont have an apple's account, it doesn't matter because the game is going to be update by gamesalad in the gamesalad apple's account and i don't have to deal with apple, is like that or i got it wrong?
Thanks

    That's about the rough outline of it, but in case you haven't seen our recent posts, we're not going ahead with the GameSalad Direct plan. Instead, we'll soon be unveiling a new two-tier membership system, much like the one currently in place. People will continue to publish under their own accounts and without rev share.

    For those who were excited about GameSalad Direct and wanted to publish their games through GameSalad, we are exploring a publishing option, the details of which will be made available next Tuesday.

    Hand on heart time here....i strongly believe Gendai had something to do with the success of Bumps and Red Balls Of Goo as in people in high places so we will be looking very closely at whats on the table when the new announcements are out.

    I'm looking forward to a Direct style account. I was only a critic of it when it was supposed to be the only option as I want to go through pro eventually as well. However, at the moment, funds are very tight, and publishing 1 or 2 games through Gendai could help. I have a couple of ideas in mind. I may also be able to return the favor by selling some artwork next month (if it's possible).
