I agree with phkamp that it is weird that you can't think of any. Android is the most original-UNIX-like in it's development but I imagine you could extend it

I agree with phkamp that it is weird that you can't think of any.
Android is the most original-UNIX-like in it's development but I imagine you could extend it to systems in which large portions of source are available (since that is the kind of project C&B discussed) such as iOS and perhaps Java. Google Chrome. vBulletin. The Pine MUA. The ssh.com RFC 4253 implementation. Various parts of RHEL. And probably numerous "Free" programs that end up following the Cathedral model merely due to the culture of their maintainers.

It's not like all software projects in the world are neatly divided into "bazaar" and "cathedral". I don't know that Google Chrome is a "cathedral", for instance. It's ridiculous that the author refuses to give a single example, instead opting to say basically "see! You people don't know what a cathedral is, just like I said."
