The Truth about OCLP Tahoe Development and Patches

Understanding the OCLP vs OCLP-Plus Divide

There is a lot of confusion regarding the 'Dortania' team and the 'OCLP-Plus' team. Here is the technical reality of the macOS Tahoe situation.

Key Points:

  1. Open Source: All OCLP work is open source on GitHub. The Dortania team does share their work, but they only release 'Stable' versions when they are safe for the general public.
  2. Integrated Graphics: The reason you don't have support yet isn't because they are 'hiding' it; it's because the drivers for non-Metal GPUs in Tahoe are fundamentally broken and require a total rewrite of the graphics stack.
  3. OCLP-Plus: This is a community fork. While they may have earlier 'hacks' to get things working, they often lack the stability and security auditing of the main Dortania branch.

Original Question: "If the Dortania team has stopped development of OCLP Tahoe, why can't they release the patches they already have?"

If the Dortania team has stopped development of OCLP Tahoe, why can't they release the patches they already have?

I have that EXACT same integrated graphics - that's really the only other thing i really need support for my macbook. Sequoia is fine, but other people (aka the group in charge of the OCLP-Plus) team has taken over and started development. If the original team won't do any more then why can't they just share the work they had?
