Triste, mas um fato... infelizmente, só fiquei sabendo agora, e isso já tem 6 meses!!!
Eu costumo visitar páginas de diversos OSs a fim de ver o que tem de novo, os focos do projeto, e por aí vai... fazia um tempo que eu não olhava o OpenDarwin, e fiquei triste hoje em ver que o projeto foi cancelado... Uma pena. Mais triste é ver que ninguém deu bola para isso... Provavelmente porque ninguém use, afinal de contas, é um projeto financiado pela Apple, e nem todo mundo tem dinheiro para comprar um Mac. Um abc! ======= OpenDarwin Shutting Down OpenDarwin was originally created with the goal of providing a development environment for building and developing Mac OS X sources as well as developing a standalone Darwin OS derivative. OpenDarwin was meant to be a development community and a proving ground for fixes and features for Mac OS X and Darwin, which could be picked up by Apple for inclusion in the canonical sources. OpenDarwin has failed to achieve its goals in 4 years of operation, and moves further from achieving these goals as time goes on. For this reason, OpenDarwin will be shutting down. Over the past few years, OpenDarwin has become a mere hosting facility for Mac OS X related projects. The original notions of developing the Mac OS X and Darwin sources has not panned out. Availability of sources, interaction with Apple representatives, difficulty building and tracking sources, and a lack of interest from the community have all contributed to this. Administering a system to host other people's projects is not what the remaining OpenDarwin contributors had signed up for and have been doing this thankless task far longer than they expected. It is time for OpenDarwin to go dark. Project admins for all active projects have been notified, and we will be working with them to provide as seamless a transition to their new homes as possible. We don't want to boot anyone off, we will be operating the machines as usual for several months, until everyone has had a chance to move elsewhere. We will continue to provide email and dns redirection after the machines go dark. We'll be looking at what other redirection services are needed and can be provided after hosting has ceased. The OpenDarwin team would like to thank everyone who did contribute to the project, and our apologies to active, loyal projects that have to move. Thanks, - OpenDarwin Core Team and Administrators
