!new! Darwin 6.5

"Apple's open source projects allow developers to customize and enhance key Apple software. Through the open source model, Apple engineers and the open source community collaborate to create better, faster and more reliable products for our users.

Beneath the appealing, easy-to-use interface of Mac OS X is a rock-solid foundation that is engineered for stability, reliability, and performance. This foundation is a core operating system commonly known as Darwin. Darwin integrates a number of technologies, most importantly Mach 3.0, operating-system services based on 4.4BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution), high-performance networking facilities, and support for multiple integrated file systems."

"...Darwin 6.5 Source Code Posted

The Darwin team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the Darwin 6.5 source code corresponding to Mac OS X 10.2.5. Darwin and a number of other projects are available via Web DAV (as well as regular HTTP). Also, access to the CVS repository has been updated. More info... [April 15 2003]..."
