At least as far as Linux goes - this is malarkey. There are more versions
of Linux out there than you could count, mostly for those platforms or
environments where the code either is not acceptable into the public
tree or simply kept back for commercial advantage. For example, you don't
see the code for the LinkSys routers in the public tree...
All serious maintainers use the code from kernel.org. Sure, there are
derivates that goes into various products, but the major development, testing,
validation and bug reporting is done on the kernel.org sources. Same thing
with RTEMS, where the (public) CVS from rtems.org is used.
