Apple providing open source contributions or products doesn't mean they have a desire to do so. I don't imagine they set out to provide an open source product.

Apple providing open source contributions or products doesn't mean they have a desire to do so. I don't imagine they set out to provide an open source product. Rather, they build out a product, and decide that it's in it's best interest to open source this part of it. I think that's an important distinction. Even when they've expressed desire publicly to make something open, what it means to Apple doesn't exactly mean the same thing to the rest of the computing world.
