Apple's Open Source repository has the current version of Catalina's core. https://opensource.apple.com/release/macos-10145.html

Why is PureDarwin on an older version? Lack of volunteers? Too many hacks required?

10.14.5 is Mojave, and we're still waiting for the latest 10.14.6 Mojave source. Their open source repo seems to be about 6 months behind at any time.

Isn't that a license violation?

It’s a BSD license, so they don’t need to release the source.

Ah, okay, that makes sense. Should have looked up the license before asking. I'll upvote your clarification.
