If I punt on the py2app support, I should be able to get it done in the next 3-4 days. I'll send a quick email to python-list when it's ready. Here's a rough roadmap of where the project is heading: v0.4.0: cx_freeze support and a tutorial [the next 3-4 days] v0.4.1: py2app support [the next 2-3 weeks] v0.5.0: differential updates using bsdiff [next few months] Cheers, Ryan -- Ryan Kelly http://www.rfk.id.au | This message is digitally signed.
