I didn't mean "co-owned" literally. Or, in fact people who perform major development, contributions, maintain all this - in open source this is a way of "owning" the software. That's how you control the development course of that particular software. And lousely according to wikipedia [1] Apple and Google are among the major contributors which is no surpise since GCC changed their licence to GPLv3 and they need a BSD compiler for themselves. On the other hand GCC is under Red Hat's patronage right now. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clang Regards, Hans.
