Quinn,
This may have been asked before on this list, I apologize if this is a
repeat. What is Apple's official policy in regards to synchronizing the
public darwin CVS repository with its internal CVS repository.
Basically, how long does apple target between releasing an OS update
and releasing that full APSL source to the public CVS repository.
-Sincerely,
Brian Tabone

BTW, are the sources found in xnu the same as those provided in a Mac

No.
I mean, if I build mach_kernel will it work if I replace the
mach_kernel that is provided as part of Mac OS X?
Yes.
There are very minor differences between the sources that Apple uses
to build production Mac OS X kernels and the Darwin sources. The
differences are sufficiently minor that X boots just fine using a
Darwin-built kernel. In fact, I do this regularly when debugging
(while I have access to Apple's sources, it's better if I can get away
with using only public resources when helping third party developers).
