I trust mrgnome, let's take him up on his offer

That's the thing. Alty says open source isn't going to happen anymore, since the biggest CLOAK bagholders investors are against it. He is basically giving up on true trustless anon because they are too afraid other developers may "steal their shit". Me personally, I rather suspect that he isn't open sourcing so we don't see how much of the current code has been copied from other coins in the last few days just to get a closed source wallet working, so he can show it off as "proof of development".
