Where is the OSX project in relation to the Windows and Linux versions of
XBMC? Do you see any one version gaining more support that the others?

We're slightly behind the Linux version (in DVD support, at least), and
possibly slightly ahead of the Windows version, although it's catching up
quickly. The great part is that 95% of the code is cross-platform, so
people
who fix a bug on one platform usually fix it for all platforms as a result.
If you're talking about support in terms of absolute numbers, there are
lots
more Windows users than Mac or Linux users (for the moment, at least). In
terms of relative platform penetration, for OS X and Linux at least, XBMC
represents a best-of-breed solution (if we can make it solid). For OS X, we
want to get to the point where people buy a Mac and download XBMC because
it's just known as being the better Front Row.

Let us know!
