I'm not entirely convinced that they are willing to go open source. Their campaign says open source, but then they also talk about the "M-License". I can't find the actual license (if it actually exists in a legal form), but from this post it sounds like it's "open source", but only if you pay "retribution" back to the original creator. I'm presuming the retribution is just a lost-in-translation wording and that we aren't really suppose to inflict punishment as an act of vengeance, but rather more like a royalty or licensing fee where what you contribute to the community determines the value of your "retribution". It's all very vague, and requiring any type of ongoing redistribution payment, either monetary or non-monetary, violates the first criteria of being open source.Quote

Shouldn't be a problem to provide them with design files are you are willing to go open-source.
