Assuming that Mac users like it (which several have said they do), I
see no reason not to. Three things, however:

We need a good description that sets it apart from the other options
that are on the mac download page already. For example, it's
"user-friendly mac-native" - how is that different from the EDB
installer? (Humor me, I know very little about this part of the mac..)

Do we know if the author is going to be keeping up properly with
updates and patch releases? Is he (it's a guy? or a team?) on the
packagers list? Should be?

From what I can tell the installer itself is in beta. Should we
perhaps wait until it's release-ready?

Other than that, +1 ;)
