Just as a note here: In Germany for example even if you 'just' publish a simple webpage/blog, you are required (by law) to state your real life name and address (Impressum) This may not be a requirement when you publish content outside of Germany (it is in many other countries too as I think)

Jeff, I've more or less sucessfully built snowglobe 2 on Leopard 10.5 recently, but haven't tried the current latest SVN One thing I always need to set right after develop.py in XCode is the 'Active SDK' from 10.4 to the only one I have installed, which is 10.5 Also, it seems that it only rea
