Is there going to be an update to iSiloX any time soon to let it run natively on MacOS X? One particular annoyance I have is with path names. iSiloX likes to use classic-style paths separated by colons, but iSiloXC wants unix-style separated by slashes. This makes it very difficult to use iSiloX to create an XML file that is used by iSiloXC.

We are looking into it, but there are no immediate plans as of yet.

We are looking into it, but there are no immediate plans as of yet.That's unfortunate because you're increasing the risk losing some of your current customers and potential future customers who use OS X which, in case you hadn't noticed, has steadily been increasing in popularity.

Sorry if that sounds a bit bitter, but it's pretty disappointing that you've never sufficiently addressed iSiloX installer issues (http://forum.iSilo.com/showthread.php?t=652) for OS X reported years ago. And where's a Universal binary version of the conduit?

Frankly, you'd get more professional respect if you made an official public statement that this product can now be considered abandonware on OS X because that's essentially how you've been treating it and your customers who still rely on it (regardless of how few of us remain).
