In an attempt to better keep up with all of Apple’s blocking efforts, the iPhone Dev Team is considering drawing resources from the community by open-sourcing AnySim, the free app used to unlock the iPhone. iPhone Dev member Sam said that the move could “open a lot of possibilities for the future,” such as avoiding some dangerous binary patches that first created the problems with iPhone bricking.
Said Sam when talking with Gizmodo:
“Well, all the core members of the team are OK with Open Sourcing it. Now we are checking to see whether the community likes the concept and see whether we can grow support for it. We want to be certain quality software, however, not have a bin-patch-mania of pieces of our hard work by other society. We are certain that Open Source folks will submit their stuff to the tree so the software gets better.
It open a lot of possibilities for the future and anyone will be able to participate with quality cipher.
To decide what they should do, they have posted a poll on the Hackint0sh forums.
