OSX DOOM 3 confirmed and will be done “when it’s done”

Although already expected for a long while now, id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead posted the following confirmation of an OS X port of their highly anticipated first-person shooter in his .plan update (alongside the announcement of Doom 3 going gold for the PC):

More remains to be done for the OSX version of DOOM 3 and that will take some time. We won’t release the OSX version until it’s just as polished as the PC version. The date for OSX DOOM 3 remains “when it’s done”, but I can confirm that it’s definitely coming.

Hopefully Mac gamers will see a demo version early in the same way id offered one before the release of Quake III Arena (since the smaller Mac gaming community offers a much more manageable group to test out multiplayer). Too bad many of us G4 owners will likely need an upgrade to really enjoy the game and its subtle, moody environments (Dual G5 and NVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra DDL seem highly recommened).
