Hello everyone!
I love everything about Apple, in fact I'm studying programming with the goal of writing Macintosh applications. And so I have and old iMac and an old iBook with Darwin 7.0.1 in order to have not only a pure 'unix' workstation to learn on, but also to understand the relationships between OS X programming and programming for other 'unix' OS's.
Anyway, for the last month I've been trying to install GNUstep without any luck, and as a last resort I thought I would try installing Darwin 8.0.
Of course, I was frustrated when it seemed the links had been removed, but even more so when I couldn't find an explanation. (I'm not even totally sure that the distributions aren't there - Apple has some amazingly archaic stuff still available for download, but you'd have better luck just clicking around until you find it than you would using the search feature)
I've even tried googling to try to find some news or explanation, and I couldn't find anything. Is this something that is so new that news has not had time to hit the net, or something so old that everyone has quit talking about it? Or could it be that the links are still there, but just tucked away somewhere that I'm breezing right past them?
Any word on what's happened or any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!!
Best Regards,
Bryan Pierce

The x86 port of Darwin languished for many years before the release of Intel Macs. Even the OpenDarwin and GNU/Darwin projects never really made Darwin a first class citizen in the world of x86 operating systems.
