Good - I've been wanting to get an overview of what needs to be done for
quite some time now...

A MacGimp contributor? Awesome :)

I've read through the information provided a few times now and, although
I know nothing about MacOS at all, I think it looks good. Hopefully
someone with more knowledge about Macs will proof-read it as well.

I'll try to write a few notes about how to actually produce the .patch

I haven't had the time to go through the entire site for a while - but
what strikes me the most is the "About GIMP" section... this could be
improved, maybe by scaling it down a bit. It's huge! ;)

Looking forward to see what others think about it...
