Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for those details.

Around 2 years ago we (the KDE e.V) bought an Apple Mac Mini machine so 
fortunately hardware isn't an issue here.

That machine is currently connected to the Binary Factory, and produces nightly 
unsigned DMG images for various applications.

The only part missing is the Apple Developer ID you mentioned (along with 
notarisation)


Regards
Jonathan

Cheers,
Ben

    First thigns first you need apple hardware to develop on with their Xcode 
ide im sure to work with it in some way some how to compile what you are 
working on.

    Also if you don’t have mac hardware you can actually rent mini servers with 
full SSH access from hostmyapple.com<http://hostmyapple.com>

        Windows is essentially a solved problem. Mac on the other hand isn't
        really solvable.
