Doing some more research into Darwin, I found these two pages that may

Which doesn't paint a rosy picture for the future of CUPS under Apple's
ownership. A pity for CUPS now being de-facto for many distributions.
The same fate could await MySQL under its new owner, Sun Microsystems,
despite their contributions to free/open source software. In that event
we have a saviour on PostgreSQL, at least.
I applaud commercial contributions to free software but I can't help
thinking that the acquisition of existing projects by commerce results
in long-term damage to them - my opinion only.

Neil Darlow
