The context implies it’s macOS on Apple silicon.


In that case the comment makes no sense - the details of AArch64-based Macs have been made public just a few weeks ago. It takes a while to do port and test for a new platform, even if iOS was already supported.


Yup, that’s what I’m doing. Just offering my comments on how difficult some projects are to port: some require no new code and some will require quite a bit, and some will be blocked on their dependencies being in the latter camp :)


It’s implied the OP isn’t considered part of the “public” for this issue.


No, I learned of it the same time you did, although I had a fairly good idea about when this was coming for a few years ;) And while I have a bit of additional information now, it's nothing that would really be useful for porting.


Unless they work for apple. Those on the inside have been toying with it for a while now.


Nope, just a third-party developer who until June knew of "aarch64-darwin-xnu" as "iOS" ;)
