Hi Wayne, Once Garth replies, let's open another thread about the OS X trackpad patch of his. I've been using it locally on OS X for a while, and it's been really nice. I had Nick try it out on Linux as well.
It does change a little bit of behavior on non-OS X systems, which is why I'm looking to get some eyes on it from the greater team, not just OS X folks. This isn't going to hold up my nightlies, however.
