gollark: Yes.
gollark: > We have not outsourced the client for several reasons, relating to client reliability and other issues. However, we’ve come up with a compromise — we have been developing a plug in architecture to allow people to write open source code that we can plug into our client. Visit the Folding Support Forum to discuss, ask questions, and show off your work.
gollark: Yes, but the *client* isn't open source.
gollark: They seem to be going for a "security through obscurity" thing.
