The Symbian operating system has become fully open

For quite a long time know that the organization Symbian Foundation plans to make the Symbian operating system is fully open. 
Preparation for this lasted for several months and finally it is completed - for 4 months ahead of schedule. 
Open code OS Symbian  3 has already appeared on the website Symbian.org. According to one of the leaders of the alliance Symbian Foundation Larry Berkin, all source code, which constitute more than 40 million lines of code, you can download and modify at their discretion. 
Code is distributed under a free license Eclipse Public License, and others. 

Thus, Berkin not preclude the future appearance of different and incompatible versions of a Symbian. Therefore, when working with source code equipment manufacturer should pay attention to compatibility issues. In any case, the market is quite capable of independently adjusted such situations, said Larry Berkin. 
Another interesting observation made Lee Williams, executive director of the Symbian Foundation. 
According to him, only about a third package Google Android is open, the rest - proprietary software. While Symbian is open fully, including the kernel.
