Rob, Yup, we're currently using several 10.7 specific APIs both in the rollup (using NSView based NSTableView) and in the History log by way of CoreData. We are also going to be moving the entire configuration UI to auto layout which Apple added in 10.7 as well as moving large portions of the codebase into XPCServices (another 10.7 addition by Apple) for sandboxing both on the application side as well as the client end (applications that talk to growl).
We felt that with all the changes we've got planned for 1.4 and 1.5 (auto layout, xpc, sandboxing, et al) that it would have been entirely unacceptable for us to ship a version in the app store that worked on 10.6 only to turn around and abandon the 10.6 users 3-4 months later. We instead opted to draw the line in the sand at 10.7 for the app store version, both from an API/code reduction standpoint as well as making sure that people get their money's worth. -rudy Lead Developer On Nov 7, 12:50 pm, Warhaven <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Guys, > > I wanted to show my support by buying the $1.99 Growl, but it won't > let me purchase/install it on 10.6.8.
