Dear Rene, Fons, Mayly and MacRooters Sorrowly, I was not available until today, so my answer is late. First, it is great that the ROOT developers are supporting Mac OSX so well that until now I did not have any problems and can easily forget to fiddle around with LinuxPPC. Here are my suggestions, although the recent mails indicate, that both OSX versions will be supported by ROOT, if I understand correctly: I was thinking to move to 10.2 as soon as ROOT will support it. However, for ROOT to run on OSX you need also XDarwin (which already supports 10.2) and at least some Fink packages. According to the Fink website (http://fink.sourceforge.net/), Fink 0.4 does only partially support 10.2. However, they plan to release a new Fink version 0.5.0 in October, and they will no longer support 10.1 !! So, my personal preference would be to wait for Fink 0.5 and then support 10.2 in CVS. But if ROOT plans to support both versions, this would always be the optimal version, if it is not too much work. However, support for 10.2 will be essential and sufficient, since Apple will force all Mac Users to switch to 10.2 eventually. Best regards and thank you for the great MacOSX support.
