[Duo2400] Re: [Duo 2400] Safari

[Ivan Drucker]

Partially, just like OS X source code is partially open. The browser core 
-- rendering, etc -- is open source, because it came from open source in 
the first place. However, Apple doesn't usually open anything more than 
they need to, and Safari is no exception; I'm sure all the interface 
stuff and who knows what else is closed. Haven't looked myself, however, 
but I'm quite sure that there's no Safari source that you can download 
and build in its entirety.

Ivan.
