That would make sense. He'd be making the files anyways, and only once
per release.
The kicker is - he's the only one who CAN do the maintenance on this,
since he is the exclusive source of those files (someone else could of
course make their own version, essentially forking them, but that would
be silly).
Much like my committing my own changelog bits, it just saves a lot of
communication overhead if he does the commit, rather than handing the
files over to someone else to be committed. The only question is if he
is willing to do this 5-30 minutes of extra work each release.

Hej allesammans,
In cvs there is already specific files to compile wesnoth on windows,
but the xcode files that greatly facilitate compiling on osx, at least
if you want to build a 'well-behaved' mac-app, are not there.
I suggest that we should include these files into cvs, but I would
like feedback on exactly which files to upload. F ex, in the latest
version distributed by Sithrandel, the files to build his campaign
editor was included, and it gets built into the game, and available as
a menu item in windowed mode.
Furthermore, in personal communication, Sithrandel has suggested that
it perhaps would be more convenient if the xcode file itself was moved
into the folder called MacOSX, which is also needed. I think this is a
good suggestion.
There is also the all-important question of maintenance.
Unfortunately, I dare not take on this burden, since I am already
giving more time than I really have to wesnoth-dev. I personally think
it would be best if Sithrandel would agree to assume this, since it
after all is his files we are talking about.
Your thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
