Delusional appreciation for Nokia's closed "open source" practices, typical symptom of Stockholm syndrome.
Open source/Linux promoters always talk about free software and the benefits of having an own understanding of software.
In actuality most of them aren't doing anything useful with their knowledge, it isn't paying the bills for anyone, it is just providing a free platform for a few basement dwellers and some people who don't want to pay for paid alternatives.
These promoters are analogous to the so-called experts who think they know better than their doctors just because they have access to Wikipedia.
That is until they realize that developing is practically a job and requires pay. And thats why Nokia will never fully release their sources.
