I thought the point of CyanogenMod was to make Android more 'open'? I would hate to see proprietary versions of CM.

I actually use CM on my phone (Galaxy Nexus CDMA, Replicant doesn't support it) and while I know that proprietary drivers/firmware are being used, I thought the point was to have a mostly free system. I use CM without the GApps.

With an announcement like this, it just seems like CyanogenMod will end up like every other Android version out there, besides the stock source code that you can get from Google or Replicant. CM will be taking the path to becoming proprietary.

So, I guess it's time for me to move on and find something more open.
