[Rwp] A very complex question

[Scott Chesworth]

Assuming everything goes to plan, the Mac port should be usable in a
production environment comparable to (where Windows is now) sometime
in June. There'll likely be lots of testing to be done before then
though, so Mac users will be able to get their hands on something
sooner to help round off the rough edges. Mac development is fairly
uncharted territory for Jamie, so it might not be as smooth of a
process as we've become used to seeing, but hey, it's all progress.
I'm confident the end result will be cool.
