Hi, I just signed up to the list to see if I could find out how to install onto OSX, but I see that question has recently been asked (by Götz). If it really is exclusively Linux, it would be helpful if the Freshmeat page didn't state POSIX as one of the supported operating systems - I wasted an hour or so messing with the Makefile. I've got it installed in an Ubuntu VM, now, but I would have preferred not to have had to do so.

Thanks Robert, Yup, I should have read the FAQ more closely, but I assumed the promotional information I had read was correct. Freshmeat identifies one coroberti as the owner<http://freshmeat.net/users/coroberti>- presumably yourself.
