+    Cheers Mac users! LinuxSampler is finally available as AudioUnit plugin!
+    It's still a work in progress, but you might already want to checkout
+    the experimental AU binary package of LinuxSampler, available from our
+    <link ref="http://download.linuxsampler.org/dev/mac/">download server</link>.
+    As this is still an early development version, please follow the ongoing
+    discussion and development on our
+    <link ref="https://bb.linuxsampler.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&amp;t=295">web forum</link>
+    and <link ref="http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=linuxsampler-devel">developers' mailing list</link>
+    to avoid known problems. Feedback appreciated!

+    library with you. You find the download link along with the library's
+    license informations and a demo track for prelistening on our

+    Hey Mac Users! We hope to give you a good way to start the new year
+    by announcing that LinuxSampler is now officially
+    available for OS X as well! You find an installer (disk image) of the
+    latest release of LinuxSampler and QSampler for OS X on our
+    <link ref="http://www.linuxsampler.org/downloads.html">downloads site</link>.
+    Please note: gigedit is not yet available for Mac, we still need to do some
+    work on this. Same applies to JSampler unfortunately, because the required
+    Java version 1.6 is not officially available for Mac yet. Have a look
+    at the <link ref="osx.html">OS X HOWTO</link> for an easy start.
