It is not correct to say that Mac OS X "is" BSD Unix for normal
definitions of "is".

Mac OS X *is* descended from 4.4 BSD for normal definitions of "is."

Mac OS X *is* a UNIX by the only legal definition of UNIX and for normal definitions of "is."

The license under which Apple releases its open source doesn't change Mac OS X's BSD heritage, and it doesn't invalidate Mac OS X's UNIX certification.

warmest regards,
