Gentoo/MacOS X announced
Posted on 04 June 2003 by Daniel Robbins

stick man

We're pleased to announce that the Gentoo platform will soon be available for MacOS X. This means that users will be able to enjoy the the power and simplicity of the Gentoo platform and Portage where they happen to be, on the operating system they are currently using -- even if that operating system isn't GNU/Linux. We want to give our users more choices than anyone else, including the ability to use non-GNU operating systems and non-Linux kernels if they have that particular requirement or desire.

We are currently getting our infrastructure ready (mailing lists, project page, etc.) for this project and integrating Portage for MacOS X into our mainline Portage sources. I'll follow up with another news item when this initial process is complete.
