OpenGL Spec Now Controlled by Khronos Group
99BottlesOfBeerInMyF writes "According to a recent press release, the OpenGL Architecture Review Board has voted to transfer control of the OpenGL API standard to the Khronos Group, an industry working group that seems mostly known for its focus on mobile applications. Apple Computer has also just joined the group, presumably because of their interest in OpenGL for the OS X platform. I wonder what affect, if any, this will have upon the future development of the OpenGL standard."
Darwin's still active. The outside project, OpenDarwin, called it quits for a variety of reasons. The only thing in question is the ability to build an X86 kernel, which was rumored to have been killed off, but isn't necessarily the case -- they're just trying to figure out where that middle ground is to avoid pirating of the Intel version of OS X.
That whole thing is really dumb, IMHO.
But with regard to the KonquerorWebKit issue, that was a big deal long ago, but with the cross patches and open subversion repository, a lot of that rift has been taken care of. Apple could always be more open, but they aren't doing a terrible job.
