I’d like to post the Apple GitHub account where you can find quite a few repositories Apple is developing open source for not only Apple platforms. They even just announced that the new Swift native Foundation framework will be completely open source. I think that’s pretty significant.

Look, I happily make my living on Apple's platforms, and I like their tech, but their "open source" stuff is a farce. They maintain private forks of pretty much everything for Darwin. Previous discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29494808
While this is great, there are so many more FOSS projects that OSX relies on that Apple doesn't support in any way.
