Mac Wizardry is being rewritten by Terry Monks, and a new PGMO, plus KOD
and LOL will be out this summer with major user interface improvements
and without copy protection.

Return of Werdna may not get done for the Mac because of the huge amount
of reprogramming that would have to be done; it really is a totally different
program than Wiz 1-3.

Heart of the Maelstrom (and future Wizardries) uses a new version of the
Wizardry program, upgraded from the original one used in I-III; it will
almost certainly be ported to the Mac, probably in the next year or so.
