No, request was made some time ago on the-ebook.org forums. The answer was they had no time for that at the moment. (many users asked about it) The latest response was:

So what about the sources...
Our first priority is to 1) fix all bugs.

99% of our users wait for battery, "stuck keys" etc. We'll take care about the remaining 1% later
Glad that they've chosen another tone on English speaking forums.

Extensively? Not at all. We use GPL code only in djvu and pdf and this code is going to be posted on our site shortly.
1) I seriously doubt you've developed fb2 viewer code in house from scratch. The most popular FB reader is GNU licensed.
2) Same goes for chm, I doubt you've done it from scratch.

Scared of competition?
PRS+ is a hobby/for fun/join if you want project. It's not a company project. Nobodies income depends on it. The more stuff is available for users, the better.
I don't want people to wonder "why something from project X is not used in project Y". It should be clear that it's not, because sharing the code is last of project X intentions.
