Darwin Team Answers & Develop on Darwin

Posted by Hemos on from the and-the-leg-bone-connects-to-the-thigh-bone dept.

Lagos writes "In July Darwin developers at Apple had a call for questions. Their answers were posted on Monday and may be found here. There is some discussion of Apple's place within the Open Source community, though most of the questions answered are more technical." Along the same Darwinian lines, this submission came in: Maktoo writes "Maccentral is reporting that SourceForge.net has added PowerMac G4 Servers running MacOS X 10.1 into their Compile Farm. Now any apps you have going on SourceForge, you can test to see if it'll run on OS X! Gotta love that BSD heritage... OS X is already going to benefit greatly from all the apps it can use in the UNIX/Linux space. This just makes life easier for developers to bring even more."

  1. Not good UI design by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Word has a stupid menu structure. See, there's an "Insert" menu, but you won't find a "Table" option in it. Tables are inserted using the "Insert" option inside the "Table" menu.

    I've known and used Word since the DOS days and I never liked it's interface. Not even Aqua can make it look good to my eyes.
