webOS goes opensource :)

HP is making the webOS opensource and it intends to make it "pure opensource" as opposed to the "other" controlling project. The press release of the announcement is here: http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press/2011/111209xa.html?mtxs=rss-corp-news and http://developer.palm.com/blog/2011/12/open-source/

Hope this serves as a viable alternative to all the "corporate" managed mobile OSes. I would love to see a homebrew, DIY community sprung around this and create more interesting ecosystem around it with least central control.
