Re: Apple Opens Up: Kernel, Mac OS Forge, iCal Server, Bonjour, Launchd

People tend to confuse xnu and Darwin anyway, so perhaps that's the

They still refer to Darwin on the following site:

http://developer.apple.com/opensource/overview.html

See the following site for a bit more info on the kernel.  It will  
"take time" to fully document the build process:

http://kernel.macosforge.org/
