Apple Releases Rendezvous As Open Source

Posted by pudge on from the and-darwin-6.1-too dept.

clarencek writes "Apple has released Rendezvous as Open Source, as promised. Excerpt: Starting today, developers can download Rendezvous as open source under the Apple Public Source License. Rendezvous is part of a broader Open Source release today from Apple which includes the Darwin 6.0.1 operating system and additional Open Directory plug-ins. Together, these underscore Apple's commitment to making core protocols freely available as open standards and open source."

    Let's face it folks -- the guys who run Slashdot have been doing the Open-Source/Free-Software thing for much longer than yourself.

    Your immature complaints are irrelevant and inflammatory.

    Get some self-respect for yourself first before expressing such unwarranted hatred toward Rob, Timothy, Jeff, et al.

    Sir, what happened to your journal entry about winning the World Series in memory of Jack Buck and Darryl Kile? I would like to know, because I agreed with it, and the Cardinals are playing quite well now heading into the playoffs.

    I still can't watch streamed quicktime movies though.

    It's great that apple is realeasing stuff opensource, even if th license is less than perfect. The one thing they've always given away for free they're still hanging on to though. I don't get it.

    no one will likely ever see this but I just need to bitch about moderation. I never do and I have super duper karma so I don't care really. but. calling a comment redundant means that that comment was already made in some form previous the comment being moderated. thats what redundant means. saying something that has already been said. ok got that figure out now? I know there were only about 15 comments when I made my post and none of them made the same comment I did. have you considered that you are reading a thread? just because you see 20 messages before mine doesn't mean they were written before mine. check the damn times you twits.

    ok sorry. just tired of messages being marked redundant when they are in fact original.
