Yet another big Hooray for William and all those who make the Mac 3.0 happen! Very much appreciated by many.

Thanks again,

Scott

I have to second what Nyall said. Thanks to William for all the work packaging QGIS.

Some feedback: installation was straightforward and painless. It took less than 15 minutes start to finish to upgrade to QGIS 3, and I still have access to python 2 and 3, plus QGIS 2.18 and 3.0. Kudos and thanks!

Champion! I'm sure you've made a lot of people very happy with this
announcement.

For those who know what you do, your work is very much valued! It's a
shame that packaging is somewhat underappreciated and under-supported
by the wider QGIS user community :(

  Besides the big QGIS release, there are a couple other big changes
in the packaging.
