in recent years even MS is releasing more meaningful open source code than Apple (eg. asp.net vnext, PCL) or I'm missing something


Not sure they're releasing any OS code publicly though :-) internals still have to be somewhat guessed/reverse engineered at.


There are strings attached, but it is not that hard to get access to the Windows source code: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sharedsource/default.aspx


They've also added support for Docker, contributed code to Linux and are including a package manager in Windows 10. The world is turning upside down :)
