Since it looks like 1.6.2 will be released this weekend (or shortly thereafter), I would like to find out if it is possible to have a Mac binary version hosted at Tuxfamily. Since Jerome can create a Universal Binary (which allows Mac PPC users to run Hatari), his version is the first choice. However, if he is unavailable, I am willing to provide an Intel binary when 1.6.2 is released. I know binaries have been available through atari-forum, but I think it would be more convenient to point people here.
Unlike Linux users (which I used to be one), Mac users are not comfortable compiling their own source. Also, to create a nice Mac binary (SDL included in the package along with EmuTOS), it takes a bit of work. I know I spent some nights investigating how to get the Xcode project to work. If you are not a developer, Xcode is not the easiest product to deal with.
I am just trying put Mac users on the same level as Windows users who receive a binary download. :)
