ola,
this doesn't really answer to the 2 main questions :
- will pure:dyne and pd-extended debian packages
will be compatible ? ( i doubt it ), if so why make the work twice?
I hope they will be compatible, but that's up to the pure:dyne people
too. There are four Pd people working in the Debian pkg-multimedia
team: IOhannes, Alexandre Quessy, Roman, and me. That seems to be the
best place for collaborating on Debian packages, and that's where we
are submitting our packages. So I hope that pure:dyne people will
also join there.
- how will you install pd-extended on Mac OSX ?
That will remain the same, no changes. Same with Windows.

i don't get the future of pd-extended, i'm already lost enough in all pd branches and yes i think this community diverges.
ciao, sevy

From my point of view, if libraries are going to be bundled with Pd- extended, then that library needs to be included in Debian. My
development effort is to making it easy for people to make,
distribute, and install their own libraries, so they don't need to
be included in Pd-extended to be easy to get and use.The video libraries tend to be the hardest for people to build
themselves, so it makes sense to have them included in a pre- packaged way. But Matju has done a good job of making Gridflow
easy to install as a standalone..hc
