IMHO since they haven't even bothered so far to change the license from GPL to LGPL to match Wine, and clarify what exactly is so much different in their builds so that they insist on different naming (Darwine vs. Wine), they shouldn't be even considered as partners to the Wine project.
If we could have our own Wine builds for Intel Macs, that would finally help to avoid this confusion Darwine adds, and remove it from our Wiki altogether (since it's apparently where the users coming to them from).

Hi,
(I hope I did not double-post, but somehow my mail from yesterday was eaten by filter-gnomes)
It's not about being willing to, but plain lack of time. I follow this list closely and work on solutions as time permits. After half a year, it's been four weeks now that I am able again to build and test on a regular base again.
There are other components on OS X that need some love, like the winehelper.app into which I'm looking atm.
License and renaming is definitely on the list. I thought to revamp the package, once the winehelper is replaced, to not double do the work.
As already mentioned, I build the dependencies and store them inside the apple .app package, which allows for drag'n'drop installation and removal.
Having the dependencies as frameworks would be even better, as there is a lot of trouble with PATHS, especially if multiple environments are on the system, like fink and macports.
But if the name-change is the most pressing issue, I will gladly do that with this weekends release.
