Thanks. You're welcome to contribute. The source is C++/Qt though (just to be sure). Did you have anything in mind? If you're curious about parts, it's OK to ask as well*.
As for opening the source fully, I'm not over the hedge yet, but if the project needs to live (on) it will need to happen at some point.
Open sourcing the lower parts, USB and readermanager code, was intended. Essentially these are tool libraries, meant to be re-used. I'd even settle for a MIT license there.
About opening the GUI I'm still conflicted. It's more prone to get abused (true, define abuse); or the whole shebang getting ported over (delusion of grandeur perhaps
) But keep worrying and miss out on the good parts of life.
Some other issues are remaining cruft in the code (think re job/work offers). Example, I passed some preference variables around instead of utilizing static member variables). Another were internal name changes (like Profile -> AnnotationSource -> ReaderSystemSource etc). but the worse has passed there.

Aside, v0.14 is nearing completion with Kobo and Sony support.
