It's ok for me.
For Mac OS X systems up to 10.8, Sweet Home 3D now runs with Java 3D 1.5.2 which comes with an older version of JOGL (and yes, there are still some people obliged to use Mac OS X 10.6.8).
Hmm, yeah. We could set 10.5 for gluegen, joal (not openal-soft), jogl and jocl.
Only when we up to XCode 14.3 they lift the minimum to MacOS 13.

Guess I have to make a good copy of  XCode 14.2 before they pull it from existence ;-)

Note: To install old MacOS stuff (OS and XCode), I had to set the date to '010101012018' (1st Jan 2018)
to be able to even install the stuff due to some signature verification.
It was a PIA .. as usual w/ MacOS :)

So I guess will push this back down to 10.5 then for mentioned modules.
I 'just' wanted to see whether there is still a MacOS < 10.7 use case ...

At least I have a clear understanding about all the knobs and switches
about this MacOS version support thingy, as it was not all clear to me beforehand.

See my report about successful tests in this subject.

Thanks for your efforts.
Great report, thank you.
