[news.eclipse.tools.ve] Re: Mac OS 10.3.9, VE and SWT

[Jeff Myers <myersj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jose,

The core VE team does not have access to OS X machines and does not have 
the required knowledge of Carbon programming - so the way it stands now 
it'll require community involvement to get OS X as a fully supported 
platform in VE.

Please see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=47716 and 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=58022
