This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com Is there a way to get feedback or guidance on these items? Does Apple understand that some sites may depend on the posted code, and when it just haphazardly disappears or doesn't get posted, and there is no communication about it, that it can be worrying? This list is a good place to raise these issues, but I (and probably others at Apple) don't always have time to read the list everyday. For urgent items, sending an email to opensource@apple.com or filing a bug report via <http:// bugreporter.apple.com/> might receive more immediate attention. We do what we can. Well, I'll eat my hat on this one since you did indeed fix it promptly. But I'm sure you also understand the concern coming off the heels of the whole xnu thing. Kevin, you know this is not directed at individuals at Apple. I'm grateful for what you do. But I (and I'm sure you, too) do wish that Apple would devote more resources on the open source front, especially given how it talks it up from a marketing standpoint, if it's really difficult for those of you who work on it to keep up with it. I know there are people within Apple who believe in the benefits of open source, and in Apple's open source programs, and I think many people want to see that continue in a positive way. smime.p7s
