If it is going to be anything similar like the work the Foundation is doing with Symbian, what´s gonna happen is that a base "MeeGo" UI will be developed, which is going to be fully open source.

Vendors would have the chance to replace such UI by their own, like "Nokia's MeeGo UI" in order to introduce differentiation and added value (though better features I guess). And is probably going to be developed in secret because an UI, which nowadays can make people flock to a product and ensure its success, can be considered a critical asset.

Pure speculation, mind you.
