We (and the osx users) have to thank you for undertaking this. The
result is really worth the effort. I am sorry that you do not have
more time to spend on this, and I would be delighted to find another
maintainer for the osx port. There remains things to be done, and I
have ideas for some of them. Nevertheless, none of the core
developpers have access to mac osx, so we really need someone. I will
do what I can to assist this work.

I'll try to write tomorrow my take on what needs to be done.
