COS 3 Project sources

Hello everyone,

I've recently become interested in the Commodore OS Vision project, which I find truly fascinating (Thanks to Retro Recipe great video!). However, while exploring the available resources, I couldn't find any information about whether the project's sources are available.

Does anyone know if the source code has been published somewhere, or is it closed?
Additionally, is the project participatory? I'd like to know if contributions are possible or if development is entirely closed.

Thanks in advance for your insights!

The OS is linux based which is open source for the most part.
It's lineage goes back to Debian through MX-Linux. I'm not entirely sure if MX-Linux included closed source software.
Some of the included games would be closed source as would some proprietary hardware drivers.
In COS2 you will see that all the script code is viewable.
If you would like to develop something dm me.
