Skype - Download Skype for Mac OS X

That's nice that it's here now. But I think it's a bit much that it only runs from 10.3 onwards. So count me out.

spgsql - PostgreSQL driver written entirely in Scheme

Zach Beane

Elephant sounds interesting - a database for Lisp objects based on Sleepycat-DB. Would be another possible building block for a Lisp rewrite of PyDS or similar projects where you need a directly embedded database.
