Well, I'm a computer scientist. If you open source something and also announce it etc.; why wouldn't you want to see your design out in the open.
Again, as an OSS author (and yes I still earn my money writing software), seeing people use your solutions is a reward in itself.
I'm 100 (+n) % sure that Nicolas Perrinn knew people would be looking at the designs, and use his smart ideas.
If you want to compete on an OSS base, you're claiming you know the inner workings of your design better than outsiders and still will beat them even if they have access to your plans.
Anyways, curious to see how Nicolas will spin it.
