The developers at RedleX have sent out word that Mellel word processor will soon be a Universal Binary.
As always you can check the list at guide.apple.com/universal for a full listing of Universal Binaries - as of today, the list is over 1100 applications. Of course iWork ‘06 from Apple is already a Universal Binary, and Nisus Writer Express is as well.
Rumors are (and they are probably fairly accurate) that Apple will have Intel machines across their full desktop and notebook lineup by August of 2006.

Mellel 2.0, the word processor from RedleX, has been released. Mellel is one of the leading word processors for Mac OS X, with a special focus on scholars, writers, technical writing and multilingual word processing. A lot of genealogists use it because of the above advertised features -if you’re writing formal genealogy documents/books, the formatting, footnote/endnote, citation, and layout features are a big plus. Version 2.0 is a major update, and requires Mac OS X 10.2.
The Mellel Spotlight Plugin is just that - a plugin for Mac OS X 10.4’s Spotlight, that makes Mellel documents searchable.
