| | Apple Opens Rendezvous Code |
 | | Apple Computer Inc. on Wednesday delivered a new gift to the open-source community when it opened the code for Rendezvous, its hands-off networking technology. |
 | | Rendezvous, which Apple unveiled at May's Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose, Calif., as a feature of the company's new "Jaguar" Mac OS X 10.2, lets computers and devices dynamically seek out each other's addresses over any IP network, including Ethernet or 802.11-based wireless networks such as Apple's own AirPort technology. |
 | | Apple said it is working with the Internet Engineering Task Force's Zeroconf Working Group to advance zero-configuration IP networking, and it is submitting Rendezvous to the IETF as an open standard. |
