This is about a fundamental shift in strategy on a product with no notice or communication whatsoever to the community. Will Apple's server and enterprise strategy suffer the same fate? After I purchase 50 Xserves, will the Xserve family be discontinued with no notice?


I don't think anyone told half the people at Apple, either. According to http://www.apple.com/opensource, "As the first major computer company to make Open Source development a key part of its ongoing software strategy, Apple remains committed to the Open Source development model. Major components of Mac OS X, including the UNIX-based core, are made available under Apple’s Open Source license, allowing developers and students to view source code, learn from it and submit suggestions and modifications"

Someone really ought to give them all copies of the same hymnsheet :-(
