Huh?
"FreeBSD developer here. Apple contributes back lots. We're very happy that the BSD license has allowed Apple to use our code." http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2084333 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2084333
"at the last FreeBSD devsummit I attended, the people Apple sent were begging us to take more and the holdup was FreeBSD developers (myself included) not being sure that we really liked the solutions OS X had developed." http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3560947 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3560947
"This keeps being brought up, the whole apple not contributing back to FreeBSD, but I would urge you to please look through FreeBSD's CVS history to find all of the places that Apple HAS indeed contributed back (I've made several comments with links to such sources on HN before)." http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2083877 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2083877
