The Free42 source code is GPL-licensed, so they will have to make the DM42 source code available, at least to people who actually buy one.
Whether or not they'll support people flashing their own firmware builds is a separate question (which is addressed by GPLv3, but Free42 is licensed under GPLv2), but I would be surprised if they didn't support that as well.
Michael's intention is to build the core system. That is, adapt Free42 to the screen, the I/O (USB, SDCARD, IR) as a basis for further development. The objective is to have the "community" share their efforts to enhance on that with others.
