    With the release of Homeworld 2 for the PC, Relic Entertainment was decided to give back to their impressive fan community by releasing the source code to the original Homeworld. When it was released back in 1999, Homeworld took the Real-time Strategy world by storm with its innovative gameplay and futuristic space setting.

    Releasing the source code could enable some entrepreneurial spirit to work on porting the game to the Mac, though this should by no means be taken to be a trivial task. Any programmers interested will need to head over to Relic's source site and sign their licensing agreement.

    This is one of the greatest games I have played. Relic always makes good games and this game has a very good story. Also a comfortable game playing and great graphics if you have a powerful 3D card. If someone can port this to PPC, I would love to play and finish it again.

    if i didnt know any better i would say you are gunning for my old job hahaha.

    but seriously the SDL port would more than likly take little work (3, 4 days) to do a decent PPC port

    (i hate my keyboard....one of these days i will learn to proof read)
