I would imagine the coins members (devs) that are a part of blocknet would be exposed to the tech for the blocknet because they need to integrate. However, any coin that was not part of the system would not need to access that code. So why would you expose the secret sauce other than in a more restrictive manner that would benefit the core coin community? In the "real world" you expose API's and such (like Xbridge), not the foundation until you have exercised it's core existence and functionality. But to your point, some things need to be transparent and would agree it makes it obvious as too how things are progressing if that is the intent. To that end, I think the board (or early members) provided some guidance or communication on milestones and deliverable's. To me, anyone else looking for some code to sniff is up to something else within this particular setting, nefarious  or otherwise; but totally get wanting to look over the code to evaluate it's structure and beauty under the covers with a pure intellect at heart. Guess we'll see how it pans out...
