Also, before a release I run the tests on some other systems (since target-specific bugs are not so rare, unfortunately) -- though for alpha releases I don't necessarily fix all the bugs I find there if they're tricky and uncommon enough --, and run some scripts that prepare the download files, web pages etc.
If it is helpful, I would be pleased to test a soon-to-be-released pre-alpha version on Mac OS X. I guess Maurice Lombardi and Prof A Olowofoyeku would be prepared to do the same on their respective platforms also. Another possibility is to release an alpha version like we do now and then, say three weeks later, a beta version with the necessary fixes of reported problems. However, these are just ideas, I don't want to generate extra work for Frank.
