What impact will AOSP's no longer being open source have on GrapheneOS?
Question
From a reply on Mastodon
It will have very little impact on it. We already have to wait for the stable tags to get most of the sources for a new stable release. We're working on obtaining partner access via an OEM so we can port our changes early. Only a small portion of AOSP was developed in the open in the main branch. The Beta releases never had non-GPL sources published, and that's what we actually need along with needing far more than just the changes to a small portion of the components early.
