OpenSEES parallel(Mac) download link seems to be broken

OpenSEES parallel(OS X) download link seems to be broken.

I tried to download the newest version of OpenSEES parallel for Mac on the download page below, but it said "The page you are looking for either no longer exists or has not been created".
http://opensees.berkeley.edu/OpenSees/p ... wnload.php

On the other hand, I successfully downloaded OpenSEES parallel 2.4.0 for Mac.
I guess OpenSEES Parallel 2.4.6 for Mac is not yet ready? or is there any other problem?

Dear fmk
thank you for your reply.

then there's no way to use OpenSees in parallel? should i use windows for that?
or should i build parallel version of OpenSees using recently released svn?

it is possible to build .. if you can build OpenSees, OpenSeesSP is easy to build if you are just wanting to do parameter studies .. OpenSeesMP is a pain due to the MUMPS solver and all the extra libraries that are needed .. windows is an option, as is linux .. you could also try Amazon

Dear fmk

and here's a question i would like to ask. is there any future plan on releasing OS X version of OpenSEES MP?
