  Thank you.

Would it make sense to have a LyX/Mac or LyX/Win build?

  I think so, what do others think?

For LyX/Mac, I suppose that the fact that one cannot start from GUI is
problematic...

On the other hand since this is an alpha release I expect that our target will not care (too) much about this detail. We should document this in the
wiki as well.

  What do you think Bennet?

I'm happy to provide one, but the warnings against using it for any real work should be pretty strong. I wonder whether what I provide should include debug info, with instructions for people to run it via gdb. That alone might (properly) scare off people who might mistakenly think this release is usable on Mac. Does that sound reasonable?

By the way, I'm mostly switched over to an Intel Mac now; I do have a PPC Mac that I can use, but it's not convenient. Should I provide binaries for both at this stage? (I certainly can for a real release.)
