[QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-user] QGIS 3 OS X/macOS

[William Kyngesburye]

I'm working on getting access to have the files on qgis.org.

There is a QGIS developer ID that I should be able to sign it with.  I just haven't had time to look into it.  One big change I have to make is the packaging software, I'm still using the old packagemaker app, and the current tools are terminal-only.
