As has been said countless times already, the Mac version is the first priority, then the Linux version. The Linux version will come out after the Mac version. Furthermore, I can't imagine that it will be long behind the Mac version, as most of the cross-platform compatibility issues should be sorted. Learn the art of patience.

Version 1.4 is not compatible with any previous versions, so most of the server listing will show up Red (cant join), but you will be able to play 1.4 users on PC and Mac.
The Mac beta version will hopefully be coming later today.
When are you going to fix the many bugs that have existed for months now? Like bombers flying in circles, the huge memory leak, or the inability to connect properly to a server and being 'unknown'? What about the problem of hosts disconnecting?
Why are you working on extra features instead of fixing these bugs?

Because these bugs affect all platforms. The code base can't move forward unless it drags the Mac and Linux versions with it. A better way is that which is happening now, to get the Mac and Linux versions up to the same base as the Windows version, so that the bugs can be fixed across all in one go; no dragging of code bases required.
