Have I just missed the announcement, or are people jumping to

an OS from Apple and the release of the corresponding Darwin sources.
There have already been two corresponding source releases for Mac OS
X (Intel).
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.4.x86/
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.5.x86/
Compare that to:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.4.ppc/
http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.5.ppc/
And the fact that there hasn't been an "announcement" is precisely
the problem.
Has anyone at Apple actually stated that buildable sources for
Intel won't be made available, or are people just inferring this
from the fact that they're not up for download yet?
What happened to all the APSL projects on the x86 side? The only
thing that has been released is GPL code that Richard Stallman
complained about Apple not releasing. Why does the Darwin OS page now
redirect to <http://developer.apple.com/opensource/>?
If nothing is changing and this simply represents a "delay", then
that should be pretty easy for Apple to confirm, shouldn't it?
