the OS X package was: Re: [Wyonacms-users] Creating new pages with wyona - Getting organised

Hi there,

Jason, I remeber your post about the building of a OS X package. 
Allthough I actually don't see what this package should be good for. 
Not, that I'm in doubt of anything or the like, I just don't get it. 
Maybe you can explain the goals of such a package to me. Meanwhile I 
try to explain how I installed wyona on my Mac (w/ OS X):

1. downloaded the tomcat binary from the tomcat site
2. installed tomcat
3. created start- und stop-files, set the path to tomcat accordingly
4. downloaded wyona
      - the given Linux-binary-snapshot
      - optional: the nighly build snapshot
5. put the wyona.war in the right place
6. restart tomcat

Sure, this path might be a bit steep for Joe McAverage, but it's 
faisible. The next problems for Joe McAverage arise, when he has the 
idea to get an update (download a new nightly-build), or when he 
want's to use cvs (Apple provides an introduction 
<http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/cvsoverview.html>).

And, if the User want's to avoid installing tomcat as an binary with 
the terminal there are packages of tomcat around (don't have a URL 
handy).

Please tell me, do I miss a point?
