Would anyone like to be added as a collaborator to this project? We don't currently support Apple Silicon directly at my shop and I don't have access to an Apple Silicon Mac, so I don't have any way to test / validate PRs regarding that architecture. We've also moved to using Conan for our C++ dependencies at my shop and there's a fair amount of maintenance for Apple (and Android) platforms that I have to do there as well. I'm finding I'm just not having time to keep up with verifying PRs for this like I should be.

@faithfracture I honestly don't have a lot of time to allocate to OSS in general, but I could probably find a few hours here and there to help triage issues and PRs.

I have an Apple Silicon machine since a few weeks ago I could test the code with, and I'll need to make my day job project work on Apple Silicon hardware (this includes making boost run on this platform too).

Long term we're looking to drop boost as a dependency though, so I'll probably be less invested in Apple-Boost-BuildScript when this happen (in a few years probably).

Hi everyone. As you have probably realized, I've stopped working significantly on this project in the last few months / years. As I announced in my comment in 2021, we are currently dropping boost as a dependency at my day job, so I have little incentive to maintain this build script anymore.

If anyone is willing to take over, let us know and we'll add you as a collaborator.

can suggest to use Conan to manage dependencies - it already has all the fixes from this project
