"CyanogenMod’s team of developers have been hard at work, building their tastier blend of Android Ice Cream Sandwich for the masses. Though, CM9 is not the only project the developers have been hard at work on. Developer Koushik “Koush” Dutta proposed the idea of creating their own ‘Android’ market to host and sell all applications that Google removed from the Android Market such as one-click root apps, game emulators, visual voicemail, tether apps, etc. The idea is quickly being turned into a reality.
Google’s Android app market is fairly open in terms of freedom; especially when compared to Apples own iOS app market. The rejection of apps such as one-click root apps could be a direct effect of companies, such as Samsung, claiming that these apps are unsafe or infringe on copyright laws. With all honesty, they are correct.
Most apps that are taken off the market are simply not meant for the average Android user. A CyanogenMod Android market on the other hand would not only target a better and more experienced audience, but would also allow the team to generate revenue for their project. The CyanogenMod market will be available for all devices running a CyanogenMod ROM as well as any other Android device regardless of root state. The release of the market is unknown at the time. A wild guess would be very soon or possibly along side the launch of the first official CM9 release."

Just wanted to know if this os is open source or not
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I think the OS is based on MER/NEMO which is open source, but the UI and OS application layers that allow running of jolla and android apps are not. Native apps will be QT based which is open source.
Actually the Android compatibility layer is Open Source. Ubuntu mobile is also using it. The ui is currently closed. There were earlier comments from Jolla that they'll open it after the phone gets released

But the native Jolla application will be compatible with Mer/Nemo OS? Or they're will be running only on Jolla UI?

Native Jolla app should use sillica components. If you install sillica components on Mer/Nemo it will be sailfish os.

Careful with that. "Android Compatibility Layer" is a product of OpenMobileWorldWide and is not Open Source. It's vaporware that was promised to MeeGo users (and many others), but was never delivered. ACL is most definitely Closed Source. To date, they have not delivered one product to the market. They do claim to be close to a release for the webOS powered TouchPad.
I've been using Ubuntu Touch since almost day one... There is not now, nor has there been announced so far as I know, ANY plans to make Android Apps run on Ubuntu Mobile. Certainly not with ACL. Ubuntu Touch promotes Web Apps and Open Source, easily tailored to any OS native Apps built with Open Source languages such as QT and HTML5.
It's my understanding that Jolla is using Myriad Group's Alien Dalvik (Android Runtime) to translate Android Apps into their environment.

My bad, you are right. I somehow got confused and was thinking about libhybris, the library that allows Sailfish and Ubuntu Touch to run android device drivers. I wasn't even aware of the ACL product/vaporware, though.

Yeah... libhybris appears to be the Philosopher's Stone of Open Source porting. I'm hoping it allows Sailfish to get ported to my Nexus 4 very soon.
Yes it is partly open. On talk.maeomo.org there is a list of the packsges that are open and the ones that are closed source.

The source code for the OS is on the mer website, The "Sailfish OS" part is the UI, and the App Store, which are closed source, for now.

I believe it was during the last UDS, and I think it was Mark who hinted that they are now open to the idea of making Android apps run on Ubuntu but it is not a current priority.
Edit: Found it
This is something I have been told by a few other people but haven't found any evidence to support or disprove this.
Do larger companies (for example DirecTV Now, Vue, Sling TV) have to strike a monetary deal with Google in order to be allowed to publish their app on the Android TV play store?
The only thing I found was in some development guidelines on requirements for the android TV platform which stated that the app had to support lean back and have remote control support (then of course a few flags or indicators in the app to say it is compatible with android TV). From there you just publish the app as normal.
I ask this also as a secondary motive as what do we as Android TV users have to do to garner more support for the android TV platform and convince developers to make their apps for Android TV as well. I'm unsure if Google themselves are the issue by not releasing sales numbers for Android TV devices and then companies see that as a deterrent as then they don't know how large of an audience they are making the app for and see it as not worthwhile. I am hoping with the release of the new shield TV and soon the new Google Android TV that Android TV gains more support... but with no exact numbers does it do the community any good to set their voice out there and say hey develop for this platform.
It especially annoys me when An app is developed for android, and for the FireTV platform (which is android) and yet...that app isn't deployed on Android TV... go figure.
Dear developers and fellow s4 users,
I recently got my hands on a s4 and would like to kindly push your attention on a awesome project I am following since a while. The project is called Maru OS and it turns your phone into a pc running Linux when attached to a monitor. In daily use it runs android aosp and since a few weeks it is build on lineageos as well (hence ports should be a lot easier). Right now there are already ports for nexus 5 and 5x, HTC 10, lg g5 ... existing.
I am sadly not a developer and lack the skills to code but I wanted to make a little shoutout and were hoping to attract someone's attention in order to port maruos for our lovely device
Here you find the homepage:
http://maruos.com/#/
Here the google dev group
https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!forum/maru-os-dev
On YouTube you'll find some beautiful vids of maru is in action.
On github you can find all the sourcecode.
What are you're thoughts?
Have a lovely day
Wow, the project seems pretty intersting would love to see that for our s4
didnt convience me
That's a pity but thanks for your great lineage OS builds
