+osx build
+=============
+
+sign the release
+-------------------
+
+in recent osx releases, it's not ok to just sign the insallers anymore. you
+have to sign and then notarize with their service. here are some notes that use
+ad-hoc targets in the main makefile, but we should keep an eye on any future
+integration of this process in the more or less official Qt tools (QTIFW).
+
+First, we build the regular installer
+
+```
+make build
+make installer
+make sign_installer
+```
+
+Now we export the app-specific password and we proceed to notarization. If you
+don't know what is this pass, you can create one in your Apple developer
+account. Contact their friendly support for more info, but don't expect they
+understand you do not really own any Apple Hardware. Sense of humor is not
+universal.
+
+```
+export OSXAPPPASS=my-apple-app-pass
+make notarize_installer
+```
+
+Between the output of the last command, you will get a Request UUID. You should pass that request uid in the appropriate
+environment variable to check the status of the notarization process. Obviously, since the recent changes in Apple policies,
+you need to be in posession of a valid membership

+```
+
+If everything is ok, now you can finish the process, stapling the notarization info and creating the dmg.
+
+```
+make notarize_staple
+make create_dmg
+```
+
+If everything went well, you should have a .dmg for your release under the `deploy` folder.
