Would you support PowerPC, preferably 10.4+?
No. The whole point of this exercise would be to move past PPC, so
"Redora" (redone Eudora) could run on Mac OS X 10.7 and later.
Eudora 6.2 PPC runs fine on Mac OS 10.6.8, but breaks on 10.7+.
Thus, "Redora" would be targeted for 10.7 and later, Intel only.
Good point. But there are quite a few bugs in Eudora that manifest
themselves annoyingly often. A full featured and debugged version of
Eudora that runs on x86/OS X 10.6 and newer would be a much better
received product.
Time and again, people have cited to me two giant stumbling blocks as
their reason for not updating to OS X 10.7+. 1) loss of AppleWorks.
2) loss of Eudora *and* their hatred for all the other email clients
they've tried. So, I'd love to have a real Eudora-type client for
newer OS X.
I wonder what legal issues there be? afaik, Qualcomm owns Eudora and
doesn't play well with others. I believe it has only licensed
Eudora's interface and such to the Mozilla Foundation, for the
Penelope project - because that project is driven (although maybe
dead now) by the original Eudora developer, ?Steve Dorner?.
