I've tried compiling LX for the mac, followed the instructions and failed miserably - I don't see any great hope for me being able to sort the issues because my Mac dev knowledge is low.

Is there no way of being able to get a precompiled version of LX? Most other opensource efforts (firefox, et al) seem to do regular compiled builds that people can use, I was wondering if there was any way that it could happen with Xara.

As a side-not, i can't wait for the day I can start using Xara on my iMac - it's so frustrating having to boot my Windows laptop just to use XX.
