I have just tried the darktable.app version 1.1-rc2 on my OS X 10.8 with the default settings. However it says: “darktable.app” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers. Here, what is the definition of "identified developers"? Does it mean anyone with a GPG key, or does it only cover individuals who have an Apple Developers account? In the latter case, if we do *not* have an apple developer, and no-one wants to pay USD 99 to Apple to get a membership, then we should at least show instructions of how to get around the gatekeeper on OS X 10.8. Otherwise we will scare away potential OS X users who are not as saavy as us :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
