Before making the switch please be aware of
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/3077 and
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/2121 which make Meson-built
libraries mostly broken on macOS, particularly with regard to g-ir-scanner.

I think the risk area is python3 support on some commercially supported<br>

<br>
Also not a maintainer, but +1 for the switch.<br>
