Aliendalvik is the primarily source of income for Jola (selling licenses for custom embedded usages), so it's quite unlikely they will open source it any time soon. Selling licenses for users of other Linux mobile projects might be a bit more realistic. 😔

amazing! While there are not as many Sailfish OS apps many of them are quite nice and it would be great for the linux mobile phone community to have access to as many apps as possible and remove the OS fragmentation- would it be easier or harder to get these apps to run in Arch or other mobile linux distributions? As far as i know there is no effort to port SFOS apps over..
