You can't use any of this in an actual application. So, I make a mock up and show it to someone and then my finished work has to be different from the mock up to avoid copyright infringement? In that situation, I would say I have intentionally defrauded my customer(/employer) and they should refuse to pay (or fire me) and win.
(More likely still, I use them anyway since a graphic artist has made the mock-up and I presume they created or correctly sourced the graphics.)
"...found in the public release of iOS 9." Facebook can't claim copyright on Apple's UI elements by simply recreating them in a Photoshop mockup.
Upon further reading of the license, I see that it says you can't embed the Facebook Design Resources in an app. In other words, you can't redistribute their Photoshop files.
From reading the description it sounded like they were making original elements in the style of Apple's for apps with non-native features that need to blend in.
>Origami can now export code for the parts of your prototypes you used to have to tediously spec to engineers. Now with the click of a button, you can deliver your animation specs as code to your engineers that they can copy-and-paste into the project.
> This uses our _free, open source_ animation frameworks to deliver the exact same feel across all platforms. Take a look at some sample code this can generate and learn more about it.
Which runs in direct contrast with the above License:
> The Facebook Design Resources may not be embedded in any software programs or other products without express written permission.
Unless Origami isn't considered a "Facebook Design Resource" (and is a different type of resource, correct me if I'm wrong here), this seems like lawsuit bait.
Got a small chuckle out of it, because poo.
That said: Nice share, will probably come in handy. (rimshot)
GitHub projects notably exemplify this -- not only is it a painless/cheap indicator of an employee's skillset, it also works for companies too.
On top of that, it fosters communication between teams in the industry and (in some cases) serves as a recruitment channel. Those that contribute in a meaningful manner to your open-source projects must meet certain standards and expectations, and finding such people is difficult. In this case they come to you.
1. Positive PR
2. External targeted contributions. For example, most people submitting patches to open source software are facing some issue as a user. If they are experiencing the issue others may also be experiencing similar problems. This is a much better way of driving development compared to doing it post expensive market research.
3. Marketing
4. Recruiting vehicle
5. Increasing the size of markets. For example Google is trying to bring more people online with Android to increase the size of search market.
6. Commoditizing complements http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/StrategyLetterV.html
7. Reducing the cost of training new employees
8. Increasing their influence in which direction to take the industry. For example setting standards for server hardware with Open Compute Project.
9. Free testers
10. Improving employee morale
If you want them for Linux, feel free to provide your own to the community.
The winners apparently write both the history and the idioms. The Trojans would have done well to look a gift horse in the mouth.
A wooden horse can be full of physical soldiers and a digital horse with legal ones.
The idiom could be modernized to: 'dont check the odometer of a gift car'
In the case of other "gifts" the value can be negative. The trojan horse, software, and blankets from Lord Jeffery Amherst all need careful examination.

It doesn't look like this is allowed.
