Sorry Rich, but I personally only target intel processors. I don't think MacRuby will ever officially support non-intel machines.

Since when does the Open Source community take its direction from "official" vendor decisions?  As long as a free, working code base exists for a processor and OS, I'm happy to use it.

Nor, indeed, am I asking any particular developer to target a given processor.  I simply want any packaging standard we adopt to be flexible enough to handle multiple processors.
