[Python-Dev] OS-X builds for 3.7.0

[Chris Barker]

Ned,

It looks like you're still building OS-X the same way as in the past:

Intel 32+64 bit, 10.6 compatibility

Is that right?

Might it be time for an update?

Do we still need to support 32 bit?  From:

https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/99640/how-old-are-macs-that-cannot-run-64-bit-applications

There has not been a 32 bit-only Mac sold since 2006, and a out-of the box
32 bit OS since 2006 or 2007

I can't find out what the older OS version Apple supports, but I know my IT
dept has been making me upgrade, so I"m going to guess 10.8 or newer...

And maybe we could even get rid of the "Framework" builds......

-CHB
