We can make such plans provided we get some support. It requires some work because we need to adapt the JIT (we support arm64 but of course OS X comes with its own calling convention and likely other differences). So far, two people in our group might each be willing, on some condition. My conditions are getting ssh access and a small-ish bounty of $3000. Fijal said "I think if someone sends me an arm64 OS X laptop, I'm willing to do it too", which may or may not be a cheaper option. In both cases, we need a machine to add to our buildbots; one solution would be to buy us an additional Mac Mini; another would be to guarantee 24/7 ssh access for the foreseeable future (i.e. not dropping out after 3 months, like occurred too often with our Mac buildbots). A bientôt, Armin.
