Mac OS 10.6 has been end-of-life since either September 2013 (last
security update) or February 2014, depending on how you count:
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2014/03/snow-leopard-updates-are-probably-done-here-are-your-os-x-upgrade-options/
Our policy with dropping support in the past has been to
10.6 still supports Rosetta to run old apps.
10.7 means having to upgrade EVERYTHING.
That's why I still run 10.6
(and there was even more to be said for 10.4 which ran pre-OSX apps, but my
10.4 machine died).

Do these old apps need to be c

As an individual user, I don't need Tor on Mac OS 10.6, but as a developer of a
soon to be released Tor-dependent project I would like to see support continue.

We are developing a system called HideMeta that relies on Tor and other proven
security components to encry

if you're releasing a paid product which depends on torbrowser running on 10.6,
are you willing to donate for 10.6 support maintenance?
as a developer you might be aware of the caveats when supporting 32 and 64 bit
versions. apart from not having to write hundreds of #ifdefs, testing 50% less

The question was whether any users need Tor on Mac OS 10.6, and I made the case
for the users of a new system we are about to announce. Also, all we really
want is the tor executable, not the browser component, but we want it to be
signed by the Tor Project (or an equally trustworthy authority)

Sorry for chiming in belatedly on this question. I still see emails
from Mac 10.5 users maybe once every two or three months on average. I
usually tell them they should either
