Re: Apple's async changes

[Jason Molenda <jmolenda@apple.com>]

That's absurd -- I think you're the only one concerned about the fact 
that we haven't tarred up our sources on some given date and uploaded 
them to an ftp server.   Is it the statement that you want?  Like the 
one I wrote when I tarred up the sources and uploaded them to the ftp 
server a while back?  I can write another one saying "Yeah, it's all 
for the FSF, please anyone who wants to use any of that code, do it," 
if that makes a difference in your mind.  No one in the Apple developer 
tools department -- up through our VP -- wants anything but to 
contribute this code to the FSF source bases.

The async code in the last Apple drop and the async code in the Apple 
CVS repo are very nearly identical - we got that working long ago, and 
we only fix an occasional bug a couple times a year.
