Well  of course python is running on the Mac. Its even built-in out  
of the box.
But I was talking about the build-system, which generates makefiles.
the last time I tested this the makefiles didnt work.

Again I was talking about the BuildSystem. In earlier times there was  
a tcl-based build-system.
As far as I know this doesnt exist anymore. But im not sure.
And the Python-Buildsys can not create Xcode-Projects anymore. (?)

well with cmake you can build a project file much the same way you do  
with the nebula-build-system,
from those text-files you can autmatically create VS-Projects (PC)  
Xcode-Projects (MAC) and Makefiles(UNIX) and i guess even more .
So everybody can work with the IDE he prefers.
The advanage over the Nebula-Build: It doesnt have to be maintained.
If you learn how to use it you can use this know-how for different  
projects maybe in the  job as well.


BTW: Does someone know when Nebula3 will be out?
	Again: Whos the site-maintainer
