I just checked versiontracker and macupdates, as well as the official apple
site. Apple has the correct info, and link from
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/ takes one to
Lorenzo's site. You are correct however, about versiontracker. But, I'm not
sure I want sites that look that that, to have my email address. One the
other hand, I'd be happy to "manually" check in with them from time to time
and make sure that their information is correct.

Also, macupdates.com does not seem to have any info about grass gis.
Michael, are you sure this is the site you are referring to?
