It sounds like you have some interest in OS X binary packages, which
suggests that you might have some access to OS X machines with various
versions of that OS. If there were a simple recipe for building the
installers, would you be interested in doing that for some elements of
the set {10.4, 10.5, 10.6} X {2.4, 2.5, 2.6}? How simple would it need
to be for you to be interested in helping out with this?
