I personally have met the developers and don't think they would've done this project for Novell if it wasn't to be open sourced, the intentions of these developers has always been to open source Xgl, I doubt Novell has changed that. It just seems more Ximian pushed than big Novell pushed. I'd like to hear what Nat Friedman has to say, but his silence on the topic probably says he might be the person doing it.

And as the code is MIT/X licensed, they can always do in-house stuff once the core architecture is done.
