Oh, so close, and so wrong. The proper answer is of course ``darwin'',
and apple does publish lots of stuff on their website about it. Also,
the deepest core is mach4 based, which FreeBSD doesn't have, so mach
documentation should help a bit, too. Still, as long as you remember
that many things simply aren't the same or don't apply to darwin, the
daemon book (any version) may be an interesting read, too.

Finding the references left as an excercise.

It would be a poor student indeed who could not learn what makes OSX
tick by studying FreeBSD.
