Hello all-

I've prepared, tested and uploaded dependency-included installs of the latest 8.0 release for the following platforms:

- Windows 7 32-bit - MacOS 10.9+ 64-bit (Intel) - MacOS 10.12+ 64-bit (Intel) [1] - MacOS 12+ (Monterey) 64-bit (ARM) [2,3]

If anyone wishes to test these builds or upload additional platforms, please feel free. If there are no complaints in the next 2-3 days, I'll make an official announcement.

I also plan on starting the process to have the pike port for pkgsrc promoted from wip to official soon.

Please feel free to get in touch with any questions or comments.

Thanks!

Bill

[1] Pike (Intel) seems to run happily under Rosetta 2, and Big Sur (11.0) does not support virtualization, making a dependency-free build difficult. [2] assembly for Nettle has been disabled due to compilation problems. [3] Mysql does not include support for TLS because MacOS no longer ships with OpenSSL, and the security nightmare of having a bundled version seemed not worth it. Use homebrew if TLS support is required.
