Perhaps another FOSS Darwin driver already exists which would be
suitable to these stated needs. Alternative suggestions are
welcome, but
they should be free and open source, obviously.
Actually, where besides the Darwin Developers list would one suggest
changes to Darwin? Apple is not the sole arbeiter.
There are lots of arbeiters, but Apple really is the sole arbiter for
the discussion of which of their source makes it to the Darwin
repository, and with what timing.
Also, people have already asked you to stop cross posting. Please
stop.
There is an obvious exception to this courtesy, and these posts are a
shining example of it. After repeated attempts by many FOSS
developers
to get this situation remedied, nothing has happened. It is now time
for us to better use all the measures at our disposal in order to
assure that Darwin OS remains free and open.
The measures you are referring to involve discussing the problem with
Apple.
If you are unhappy that XNU has not been released, I would encourage
you to spread your dissatisfaction to other forums, so that Apple will
take notice and commit to a workable free and open Darwin OS from now
on. This is not the time to quibble about netiquette.
This is not a quibble. Please don't spam these lists with your
dissatisfaction. Take it to a forum that is designed for speculation
and complaining.
Regards,
Justin
