Thanks for the hard work you and the GAP team have put into GAP, and  
in particular, for the effort to support Mac OS X.

I have a question about the information on this page:
    <http://www.gap-system.org/Download/upgrade.html>

Is it the case that "MacOS" refers only to versions of Mac OS  
preceding Mac OS X?  Also, it is stated there that only the .zoo  
archive contains support for "MacOS", but I noticed that at least  
the .bz2 archive also contains "GAP 4 PPC" (which I assume is a Mac  
OS 9 binary).

Regards,

Justin
