Hello,
I'm curious as to the state of the MAC OS X DMG of Inkscape? I would like to make the push to get a working Mac DMG of Inkscape out as part of 0.42. Many people I know in academia want to use Inkscape in the classroom. I also can't bear to watch my gf use Illustrator in all its clunkiness on her new mac -- honestly, it is bloated and is useless without the tracing feature. I'm always shuttling fixed images back to her so she can use in her work.
Anyhow, I see the wiki page on Compiling OS X is quite full of a lot of comments, but no clear answer to the OS X package.

Basically, I would like for our next release to come out with inkscape-0.42-mac-ppc.dmg at sf.net. Therefore, people will be able to download and be happy in mac land. Obviously, this will require X11 (unless someone wants to port it to aqua...hahahahah...just kidding).
Please update me!
hmm pity about that X11 requirement for GTK2.. :S or is there a GTK2 for Aqua in the works?
