Hi Adnan,

Yes, this should be an easy thing, but I've not yet gotten around to submitting 
a Mapnik 0.7.x formula.

Right, I chose to learn homebrew by working on a mapnik2 package - the 
difference being that this requires getting the homebrew boost linked to icu. 
And the homebrew maintainers are dragging their heals on this: 
https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/pull/3150

A Mapnik 0.7.x package should work just fine with the current state of 
homebrew, and I can try to submit this next week.

No, I started a page for it 
http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/MacInstallation/Homebrew but have not gotten around 
to finishing it. Please feel free to add any steps you take to get things 
working.

Okay, yes I've not rebased for a while, thanks for the heads up on this.
