The question is where to start the petition.
I'm not a Mac user, so I've never really searched for a place to find fellow Mac gamers. This looks like a nice place to start, to me, though. And a petition looks nice, but ultimately, I think you will lead a more effective campaign if you simply have people email Westlake Interactive with requests for updates on the project (and I just noticed that site I linked to doesn't allow posting of petitions). Of course, if you tell people to email Westlake, tell them the same things I suggested to you. Keep it polite, keep it gramatically correct, keep it simple to read.
I think your letter is a great example. More letters like that might elicit at least an update on the project. Unfortunately, Westlake does not run a forum on their server, so it's hard to collect a bunch of people to rally support, and there is no place for developers to announce an official standing on Halo CE for Mac. As it stands right now, I think they're just hoping the rumor of the possibility for Halo CE Mac will just fade into history without them having to worry about it. If people speak up, then they will at least have to confront the possibility of putting this update out for Macintosh users.
It might be worth it to create an "official" Halo Custom Edition Mac thread somewhere (not necessarily on this board, as it obviously doesn't reach many Mac users) and post any updates you get from Westlake in it. Of course, I'd wait to see if I got a response from them first, before trying to organize support. They might just email you back and say that they have considered the project and see it as not feasible. :( However, if you do get a positive response, I'd be willing to help out if you think there's anything I could do to organize support.
