[Qgis-psc] QGIS for Mac OS packaging and infrastructure

Hi Saber,
There was discussion to help fund the remaining "severe" issues you have
around the MacOS builds.
Can you provide us estimates on how much funds are needed to finish the
following three items (skipping the GRASS issues for now - can be
handled later):
- Lack of Python support for macOS 10.11 and 10.12 - Unable to transfer
of the infrastructure and automatic builds under QGIS.org- from Tim:
Ability to add python packages (maybe adding another python path to
directory in the user’s current profile path
?
With respect to additional small donations I got: this adds up to approx
100-200 € earmarked towards MacOS. I can forward this to Lutra, however,
if the PSC decides, we might also fund more, so you are able to finish
the above three items.
With respect to Tim's crash:
- Getting a crash when trying to move dock widgets around (in current
LTR build)
Is there a ticket? If yes, this can be handled during the normal bug
fixing cycles. We just treat MacOS like all the other platforms. Nothing
special about it.
Greetings,
Andreas
