A product manager from Apple named Ernest Prabhakar posted a response on one of the Apple mailing lists in response to Tom Yager’s recent column on closing the Darwin X86 kernel. The response basically says that nothing has been decided. Which is basically what I speculated. I translate this as “Apple is gauging the response from Yager’s article”. I think in the end it will be published. I’m betting the real hold up is making sure they can publish the source and still protect the link between OS X and their hardware.
