I do know that building for multiple platforms worked with the same basic configuration under NeXT (or so I am told). I don't recall if those were fat binaries, but I think they may have been. The bottom line is I won't worry about Mac-Carbon for, oh, a year or two. I see no reason to rush. Heck, my stuff is included with Mac OS X in Tiger now, so I figure there's a chance they will fix any problems in it. ;-) I'll let Apple shake out the bugs and perhaps give me/us some access to a machine (I'd think we could probably get at least one machine for Perl developers to work with ...). Maybe Ed can give us some clues, when the time is right. (Maybe if it would make us feel better, we can start working now to get a dev box, with permission to have multiple people get access to it (me, Dan, Sherm(?), a pumpking or two ... ?) I don't want to get into a big argument about the decision itself. Well, OK, maybe I do, but I won't do so here. And I see no reason to think the sky is falling. When Mac OS X first came out, Fred Sanchez gave us patches to get perl running. We figured it all out, in time, and there's plenty of time. That's not to say there aren't a lot of concerns, and Lord knows I have mine (the ones Dan raise here, especially). But I've no reason to think that we won't be able to take care of what needs to be taken care of. -- Chris Nandor [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pudge.net/ Open Source Technology Group [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ostg.com/
