BitVapor (or anyone else?), any interest in posting your source branch and some bare-bones build instructions, so maybe a volunteer can play around with automating the build? It would be great to have up to date builds automatically.

First, thanks for your efforts in making this OS X beta version of Pale Moon/NewMoon available. I've only jut heard of Pale Moon and, like many others, being dismayed at the direction that Firefox and others have taken, decided to give it a try. I'm running Yosemite 10.10.5 on an early 2013, 15" MacBook Pro (Retina). The installation went smoothly and I had no trouble configuring it the way I liked and adding my bookmarks from Firefox was easy. So far, in the short time I've been using it, everything works as it should. I will continue to use this as my main browser and should I encounter any bugs, I'll be sure to post them on here. As long as you and the Pale Moon folks stick to your principles and continue to provide a browser with a simple and clean interface, I will be sure to keep using it. Best regards from Canada!!

Edit: August 31, 2015. I've been using the latest build for a day now on a couple of laptops running OS X 10.10.5 and one running 10.8.5 and so far, so good. Everything seems to work as expected...nice and snappy and nothing I've found that I could call a bug. Quite impressive!! I'm loving it so far...great work, keep it up!!

Pale Moon works on 10.5.5 for us as well.

We have a XUL client application that runs from the -chrome command-line option and that's working. And you can probably guess why we suddenly got interested in Pale Moon. :)

Yes, please. Anyone? Searching the forums doesn't turn up much and there's nothing obvious out on Github.

I've shot BitVapor a PM about this. No response yet.
