Really?
Sorry, my fault - my OS4 days have been a while. I assumed compositing was relying on Cairo, but it probably isn't.
Itix' remark hints at yet another conspiracy theory amongst Morphos developers - I assure you I have zero knowledge about OS4's compositing engine and how it came into existance.
So dear Mr Developer, what do you really need access to the source for? What would you like to work on?
If you had actually read the thread, you might have noticed that the hardware we're discussing has an incompatible FPU. And even if it was fully compatible, an open source MorphOS could be ported to it (by 'end users') even if his majesty wouldn't be interested, while a closed source MorphOS simply won't be ported.
And while I'm not demanding or expecting anything, buzz has a point. For someone who's doing some impressive work based on other people's code, you show remarkably less enthusiasm for opening the MorphOS code. There might be valid reasons for that (like ego, and the OS4 paranoia fed by said ego), but "open sourcing isn't neccessary" doesn't sound very convincing, coming from you

Same thing could be said about most members of the OS4 team, of course. Just that the situation over there is a lot more complicated.
