PureDarwin?

[Jordan K. Hubbard]

I think all we know by the evidence so far is that puredarwin.org is  
a web site.   I've spoken to the people behind it and said I'd check  
back with them in a year since, by all indications, it appears to me  
that they are at least a year off from becoming anything  
substantially more than a web site.  There's way more work involved  
than even they know, I think, and 12 months should be enough time for  
them to either make substantial progress in working through all the  
issues or give up and decide to do other things.

In the meantime, of course, there is a web site. :-)
