[developers] LUI binaries in the main LKB repository

[Chris Curtis]

Alexandre,

I’m here and reading, though not always daily. :) 

I haven’t done much with the code since Cambridge* — mostly because it didn’t seem to be a priority for anyone but me, and I haven’t been working on my grammar so it wasn’t even a priority for me.

It seems like the Mac LKB-FOS is getting some use, and with Catalina pushing the 64-bit transition it’s becoming a blocker, so I’d be happy to put some attention towards MacLui.

*I was there — I think we might have talked briefly in there, but not in depth.

The fork of yzlui that is based on Cocoa is not available in a public place right now, and in fact I don't have a copy here at the office with me.  Chris Curtis has the most recent version, as I believe he has been improving it somewhat in the last year.  I can upload a copy of the last version I had later on if that is of interest.
