I don't understand Apple. You are using a BSD kernel, Java is completely Open Source, and yet you are super secretive about what you are doing. Someone should make a spoof of it, frankly. One would have two guys on stage: Apple and Linux/Unix.
Linux: Hi Apple
Apple: Hi Linux
Linux: Nice day isn't it?
Apple: Can't tell, I am under NDA.
Linux: But you can see the Sun is shining.
Apple: Shht. That's a secret. I have been told not to speak about this.
Linux: Talk about the weather?
Apple: Weather? What weather?
Linux, pointing to the sky, with a puzzled look
Apple: You know Linux, why don't you sign this paper and we'll be able to talk about this
Linux: (reads the paper) I commit not to speak about open things, and do everything in secret?
Apple: then you'll be part of our club
Linux: And what advantage do I get?
Apple: Things are easier inside this club?
Linux: How?
Apple: We can speak about the weather :-)
