Fortress for mac os x... when?

Post by mccarre » Wed Dec 31, 2008 2:36 pm

Sorry if this is a jerk post, 'cause it's been asked five million times, but any idea when they'll release Fortress for mac os x? I have a number of projects on fortress, and sure they are visual studio .net projects, but I can just use Mono to develop on mac os x, so the only missing link now is the same source control.

The source control side of Fortress should work like Vault. You can run the command-line client on a MAC using .mono. The task and bug tracking side is web-based, so that shouldn't be a problem. Also, the Eclipse client works on a MAC.

Did you have a different answer from somewhere or someone else?
Were you looking for a GUI client for the MAC or could you explain further what you are looking for?

For some reason it skipped my mind to use the command line tool. I suppose this is entirely possible.

I know you can track things from any webpage, so ya I could have easily spied on my project, which was my initial intention.

However I was being blind simply because their doesn't appear to be a GUI for fortress on mac.

In this case I suppose you haven't satisfied my questions with answers and I'm grateful, however you could still answer my last question of when a GUI client of Fortress will be available for mac. Is it currently in development? Is their any interest? Am I just too blind to see theirs already a GUI client out? =P

Btw thanks again for the answers previous =)

There currently is not a GUI Client for Mac.

We do have feature request 9186 logged for for a Mac GUI client, but this won't be implemented anytime soon. This would be a big project, and we have many other feature request which are more pressing.
