=== Safari 2 === In April 2005, Engineer [[Dave Hyatt]] fixed several [[Software bug|bugs]] in Safari. His experimental beta passed the [[Acid2]] rendering test on April 27, 2005, marking it the first browser to do so.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/index.html|title=Surfin' Safari|first=Dave|last=Hyatt|date=April 2005|website=[[Mozillazine]]|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050507043322/http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/archives/2005_04.html|archive-date=May 7, 2005}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/index.html#008042|title=Surfin' Safari|first=Dave|last=Hyatt|at=Safari Passes the Acid2 Test (Updated)|website=[[Mozillazine]]|date=April 27, 2005|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050507043322/http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/archives/2005_04.html#008042|archive-date=May 7, 2005}}</ref> Safari 2.0 which was released on April 29, 2005, was the sole browser [[Mac OS X v10.4|Mac OS X 10.4]] offered by default. Apple touted this version as it was capable of running a 1.8x speed boost compared to version 1.2.4 but it did not yet feature the Acid2 bug fixes. These major changes were initially unavailable for [[End user|end-users]] unless they privately installed and compiled the [[WebKit]] [[source code]] or ran one of the nightly automated builds available at [[OpenDarwin]]. Version 2.0.2, released on October 31, 2005, finally included the Acid2 bug fixes.<ref>{{cite web |first=Dave |last=Hyatt |title=Nightly Builds |url=http://webkit.org/blog/29/nightly-builds/|website=[[Webkit]]|date=October 12, 2005|access-date=October 29, 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190323104500/https://webkit.org/blog/29/nightly-builds/|archive-date=March 23, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> In June 2005 in response to KHTML criticisms over the lack of access to change logs, Apple moved the development source code and bug tracking of [[WebCore]] and [[JavaScriptCore]] to OpenDarwin. They have also open-sourced WebKit. The source code is for non-renderer aspects of the browser such as its [[Graphical user interface|GUI]] elements and the remaining proprietary.<ref>{{cite web|date=October 26, 2003|url=https://opensource.apple.com/source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore-5523.10.3/ChangeLog|title=Safari JavaScriptCore-5523.10.3/ChangeLog|website=OpenSource Apple|access-date=May 17, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210205050912/https://opensource.apple.com/source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore-5523.10.3/ChangeLog|archive-date=February 5, 2021|url-status=live}}</ref> The final stable version of Safari 2 and the last version released exclusively with Mac OS X, Safari 2.0.4, was updated on January 10, 2006, for Mac OS X. It was only available within Mac OS X Update 10.4.4, and it delivered fixes to layout and CPU usage issues among other improvements.<ref>{{cite web|date=July 15, 2008|url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2343|title=About the Mac OS X 10.4.4 Update (Delta)|access-date=September 12, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090228104059/http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2343|archive-date=February 28, 2009|website=[[Apple Inc.]]}}</ref>
