Re: [platform-swt-dev] MacOS X port status?

Just a little historical background... SWT was created before and independently of Eclipse, before there was an idea of making it open source.  The QNX and Linux ports of SWT were created long ago because a lot of OTI's business is in the embedded market, and those operating systems are more important in that world; in other words, they were created before the PMC even existed.  Plus, it's hard to argue that Linux isn't bigger in the open source world than Mac.

What benefits will the PMC actually provide for the Mac port?  Please
correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the same group that approved
multiple Linux ports and a QNX port, yet doesn¹t even have the Mac listed on
it's road map?
