Much to my suprise, a shadowy anonymous figure in the Psi MUC (who didn’t want to be publically acknowledged) yesterday asked when the Mac nightly builds would be back, as Remko can’t make them anymore, and when I replied that I needed replacement RAM for my mac mini before I could do that bought me some. The generosity was much appreciated and the RAM arrived at work today, so I’ll be attempting to get the nightlies back up (undoubtedly with Remko’s assistance) in the very near future (the box needs a reformat, since the old corrupt RAM wrecked things somewhat).

Hoorah for harware donations to support OSS! (Following this news, Remko’s told me that he wouldn’t say no to an intel mac mini to test universal support on (come to think of it, I wouldn’t say no to an iMac for the same reason ) ). Somewhat more seriously, this was a very helpful donation that’ll improve the state of Psi by bringing back nightly mac builds and that’s a good thing.

Thank you shadowy anonymous user
