Actually, the x86 sources are still missing quite a few projects. Last week, however, there were only GPL licensed sources on the x86 page. Apple released the source code to many APSL licensed projects this week, but not all of them. It remains impossible to build an OS based on the posted sources.
While I said "thank you" and meant it, opensource at Apple is certainly not hunky-dory.
And then imagine that the high end beer you have a discount on doesn't have it's ingredients listed on the label, and only some of them are available to you. You can't quite be sure that it is safe to drink.
Even with the discount, the Rolling Rock (whatever that is?) is free and you can see exactly what went into it. KDE is available for Mac OS X. That is cool. There is no need to go disparaging the months of work that went into this port with a silly beer analogy.
