definitely not open then qi-hardware ben nanonote. Ben Nanonote simply, 
open and active now you can always get answer in qi-hardware list or 
IRC  #qi-hardware @freenode.net

ben nanonote have committed some code to linux.org you can find the 
it after 2.6.36 :)

BTW:
OpenMoko have canceled develop FreeRunner. the other device WikiReader 
is not base on GNU/Linux system.
