Setting the Record Straight: Apple and Intel Darwin Kernel
On Apple's Open Source Mailing list, Ernest N. Prabhakar, Ph.D., Product Manager, Open Source & Open Standards; Mac OS X Product Marketing sets the record straight on speculation that Apple is not going to release Darwin sources for Intel:
Just to be clear, Tom Yager was *speculating* about why we have -- so far -- not released the source code of the kernel for Intel-based Macintoshes. We continue to release *all* the Darwin sources for our PowerPC systems, and so far has released all the non-kernel Darwin sources for Intel.
Nothing has been announced, so he (and everyone else) certainly has the right to speculate. But please don't confuse "speculation" with "fact."
