Hi William, I just skipped over the Mac OS X "tools" page from the R project: http://r.research.att.com/tools/ and I from what I read there, I agree that we should continue to ship the fortran.spkg with the Sage versions for Mac OS X. Apart from that, I am "+1" to removing the fortran.spkg, and rely on a Fortran compiler as an "external" dependency, just as currently with the C/C++ compiler to be used.
