Sign the petition to demand Nxt release source code so we can begin our journey:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=422590.msg4598983

So..this project won't take off the ground unless NXT release the source code?

I think I see a slight inkling of a flaw here.

I am calling their bluff that "Nxt is open source".

Oh, I entirely agree with you. If the source isn't public then no, it is not open source. But if NXT are keeping the source to themselves for financial reasons, I do not see what motivation they would have to release it. When I say flaw, what I mean to say is, NXT are not going to release to source unless it is in their best interests, so any protest would have to impact the value of NXT to be successful.

If the source code is closed,  then how can I trust that it does not have malware.  Maybe you didn't know,  most all the developers of Nxt are from Belarus.
