Honestly?

1) Sink it to the bottom

Open sourcing everything takes resources and lawyer time and developer time, neither which our beloved Maemo Devices has anymore.

In addition to that, most of Harmattan apps is built around a dead framework (MTF) and Fremantle apps is built around also dead one (Hildon, though that is being rebased on GTK+3)

We got a significant amount of things open sourced through MeeGo, but I think that's about it we'll see for now.
