Sure, I can't sit here and say LLVM or CUPS are not great. My point is that when you're the richest company, you should be at the forefront of the open source community. Instead my impression is that Apple, as compared to any other major tech company in the US with comparable market cap, is very much in the background. I would point us to github, but oh yeah Apple doesn't seem to have an official profile on that website while google, microsoft, facebook, et al.... "unofficial mirror" https://github.com/opensource-apple https://github.com/opensource-apple "genuine" https://github.com/Microsoft/ https://github.com/Microsoft/ https://github.com/google https://github.com/google https://github.com/facebook https://github.com/facebook Also I guess it would be hard to argue that Apple originated LLVM given its history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LLVM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LLVM And it looks like CUPS is not 100% open source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUPS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUPS Here's an interesting article with some talking points. http://readwrite.com/2014/05/05/apple-github-ios-android-developers http://readwrite.com/2014/05/05/apple-github-ios-android-dev...
