I thought the whole Flex Framework was open. What parts aren't / weren't? I understand that "flash.*" classes were not open, but also not part of the Flex framework; they were part of the Flash Player. Also, the SDK includes pieces independent from the Flex Framework, such as the command line compiler.
While I'm playing Devil's Advocate, how will open-sourcing the new pieces help someone create a free IDE more-so that what is available today right now? Is it a license change? Or will the open source of new pieces facilitate the development somehow?
