You have some interesting misconceptions about how corporations are run. I work for one of the largest corporations in the world, top 3 in size and revenue. We don't have any such rules on Fink or any other nonsense about compiling from source since its a complete false sense of security if you think building your own binaries is safer. How many vendor products do you compile the source to before deploying? What? You don't??? How many of those include open source libraries these days? What? The majority?? How many times have you successfully sued a vendor to cover losses related to security flaws in their software? None? that's right, because it just keeps an ugly issue in the public eye longer. Hmmm.... seems like your argument against OS X as a server falls apart once Fink and the Darwin Ports libraries are brought back into the picture. Their exclusion was based on a fallacy that applies only to the most naive of companies or those who haven't faced the reality of security theater.
