Apple/macOS silently removed from official Unix registry

https://www.opengroup.org//openbrand/register/

I see macOS 26 listed under the Unix 03 standard. Was macOS 27 listed and then removed? The submission title + site contents combined do not give enough info to assess what exactly was silently removed.
john_alan•25m ago
macOS was listed on the main register (the link in this submission).

It was Tahoe, it’s since been removed.

The UNIX03 page still lists it, but I believe that’s a mistake.

macOS has been removed from the main register/list.

dofm•6m ago
The index page seems to only list the status of current OS versions.

Perhaps Golden Gate simply hasn't passed certification yet? It's less than a month old.

cowsandmilk•38m ago
Better for both sides. They clearly have different visions for what an OS should do.
drdexebtjl•15m ago
What? The Open Group has no vision for what an OS should do, it simply writes standards describing what implementations are already doing.
ShinyLeftPad•38m ago
If true, a better title would be "macOS is no longer UNIX certified".
sdcfgy•35m ago
Well Unix as a standard is completely dead. macOS as a Unix is completely dead. I expect another branch in the already complicated as hell tree of Unixes.
john_alan•24m ago
Indeed.

I just wonder if macOS will stop being UNIX like.

That is, whilst it still has home brew and a BSD core it’s great. If that goes away it’s no longer a viable alternative to Linux.

totetsu•20m ago
What would that going away look like?
sdcfgy•10m ago
Swift on Mach
lloeki•15m ago
I'm suspecting some forces at Apple would be perfectly content with ripping most of the BSD core and the assorted CLI out and just have Linux containers spawned in VMs, WSL2-style.
sdcfgy•10m ago
It's distinctly problematic there unfortunately. Particularly the moment you add any UI toolkits to it. I've had so many problems with stuff that uses Qt because Qt takes a while to catch up with things Apple broke inside their Cocoa internals. Very irritating platform to work on.
zitterbewegung•31m ago
It could be that macOS 27 never got Unix certified. Wayback Machine on Oct 7th only shows macOS 26 being Unix certified.

27 wasn’t certified and 26 was listed but is now removed.
kylepomykala•30m ago
I could see this being corporate incompetence or a genuine deviation. I wonder which one it is.
zerozerotwo•23m ago
I never quite understood what the point of this was beyond marketing. Linux is also not listed probably because no one ever paid to have it listed
stingraycharles•12m ago
Enterprise. Checklists.

And Gnu’s Not UNIX.
harladsinsteden•14m ago
And does this have any actual impact on either the OS itself or its users?
curt15•10m ago
UNIX(tm) is no longer so relevant compared to the early days of OS X, when Linux was still in its infancy and the Unix certification undoubtedly gave Apple street cred among developers. Most developers these days target Linux for production. That's why Microsoft developed WSL, not WSU.

If this is an intentional move, Apple is just acknowledging reality.

Intellectually curious people with even a mild interest in the history of computing.
dofm•8m ago
Tahoe was Unix 03 certified, and is still listed on that page if you filter by standard and choose Unix 03.

Perhaps Golden Gate simply hasn't yet passed certification.

microtherion•8m ago
The certification was always a bit odd, applying only to a configuration nobody would run in practice: https://www.osnews.com/story/141633/apples-macos-unix-certif...

I've been a software engineer for 25 years, doing Linux stuff at startups and big companies (the biggest even). In all my time as a software engineer, I've seen maybe 3 people who didn't use a MacBook Pro for work. Apple makes the bulk of its money from tech companies and schools and they cater very well to both. If it stops being Unix-like, they lose the thing they make the most money from. They are smarter than that.
sneak•8m ago
You’re in a bubble. Windows is still huge, especially in middling companies that dictate it and standard HP/Dell/Lenovo hardware for all 3k staff.

It’s insanely common.

I don't think apple makes the bulk from professionals at all, the iphone is their flagship product and their laptop line has been expanding towards casual markets with budget models.
