I am waiting on definitive answers on two questions, until then, I'm sticking to the current setup.
- are you dropping support for the Gem SVN?
i don't understand that question. what does "support for the SVN" mean?
i announced a switch to git, which means that any future development (and bug fixes) will be done in git. no future development is planned in svn.
as long as the svn is available and i find time, i'd like to sync at least release branches. it is not likely that "quick fixes" will make it (quickly) into svn.
- are you dropping support for building on Mac OS X 10.5 without Fink?
no, why do you think so? when doing my builds, i usually do not have fink installed at all. this also means that my tests are usually done without fink. any problems arising from fink are therefore less likely to get caught.
nevertheless i'm happy to point to quick fixes for given problems (like adding /sw/bin to the beginning of PATH before running Gem's autogen.sh)
Oops, one more question:
- are you planning on making Mac OS X builds?
yes; sorry that this takes so long.
