I guess this is more of a general question, but why not focus on a
more 'original' clone and base it on Darwin?

Because there's no Darwin release?

There's Darwin 7.2.1, over a year old and not supporting current Apple hardware. Selected hardware on i386, only.

There's Darwin 8.0.1, not rebuildable from public sources and requiring SSE2 extensions on i386. Additionaly, it's known to be neither stable nor reliable.

That said, there's an upcoming Darwin 8.x release expected. After months of work, the small Darwin community finally seems to manage a rebuild from sources Apple released as "open".

Does anybody know the difference between darwin/xnu and mach3 or
mach4? Im very tempted to take another crack at mach4.
