The development of the cli version of fwpkgcreator (also known as fwpkgmaker) is going well. Because I expanded fwpkgmaker I haven't had any time to work on the gui version. I first want to finish the cli version.

But it's nearly finished, I just need to implement a few more small things and squash some bugs. I'll probably release a prerelease this weekend. You'll be able to download it from my repo.

Other than that I haven't really been able to work on the PPC-port again. Once I'm on schedule again with my schoolwork I should have time again (I guess this weekend). While we're on the subject I'd like to point out these benchmarks from ars techica.
Comparison if the iMac Core Duo with the iMac G5 and the PowerMac G5 Quad.
[powerpc-fanboy]Just look at the power of that PowerMac, compiling packages would go really fast. I really hope will Apple continue sell this mac for quite some time before replacing it with one of those dirty intel based macs. (or at least till I have enough money to buy one)[/powerpc-fanboy]
If anyone with a Quad G5 running Linux is reading this blog, then please consider giving me ssh access to it

As a sidenote, I'm wondering how long it will take before they got Linux running on the intel-based macs. (since it uses EFI instead of BIOS)
