That list is better described as a list of open source projects that Apple
has contributed to.

Darwin is composed of code developed by Apple, as well as code derived from
NeXTSTEP, BSD, and other free software projects. WebKit is a fork of KHTML

Many open source projects require you to publish the changes you make to
them if you derive some commercial benefit. So that is a lot of what you
see on that list. So TrueType and Bonjour may have come from Apple. But
Apache and bash, I don't think so.
