Apple has had Darwin on ARM processors for quite some time. It's called iOS. The cited project was porting Darwin to a certain ARMv5 chip. I don't know a lot about the ARM architecture, but from what I understand the original iPhone was already run by an ARMv6 and ARMv5 is pretty obsolete. So this can hardly be interpreted as part of a serious effort to port OS X to ARM.

it was a false flag/fake project..to see if the engineer was trust-worthy..do think the thesis would have been published outside if Apple was serious about the project? Its secretive Apple after all..
