	In the beginning of the project it was a fork of [[OPENSTEP]]. As far as I've been able to track down there have been 3 public releases of this OPENSTEP Darwin. And there have been several more public releases, up to and including OS X Server 1.0 which was based on the OPENSTEP kernel.

			From the source code of Darwin 0.1, The kernel is based on OS/F's 6.1 kernel. This is evident in [https://unix.superglobalmegacorp.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kernel/mach/boolean.h?rev=1.1.1.1;cvsroot=Darwin0 boolean.h as an example]:

			For the sake of preservation, the preserved downloads from [https://archive.org/details/darwin_0.1 Darwin 0.1 are on archive.org]. Some components in the 0.1 tars didn't make it to the 0.3 CD-ROM so they are needed to build a more 'complete' set.

	After the release of OS X Server 1.0, it was clear at this point that OS X was doomed, as 3rd party software vendors expressed no interest in porting applications to OPENSTEP/Cocoa API's. Instead Apple would have to go and create the Carbon framework, allowing traditional MacOS applications to use a subset of the toolbox API, and then be ported to OS X. Along the way the older OPENSTEP kernel was dropped in favor of a newer kernel based on Mach 3.0 and a C++ driver framework.
