Good, how much have Apple contributed back to FreeBSD? Apple also forked the LGPL licensed KHTML to form WebKit.

Does Apple have a real model that benefits open source/free software compared to the much smaller Red Hat? The only companies that I knew that contributed the same amount to open source/free software as Red Hat were Sun and Google.

But I must be just, Apple has released some open source code (GCD comes to mind) and as far as I'm informed funded some open source software (LLVM for example).
