Makerbot announces new 3D printer: Replicator 2
Anyone heard anything about whether the new hardware and software will be open-source? It would be a shame if MakerBot's continued success and growth come at the expense of openness.

Hackaday mentioned that it would be closed-source:

Guess all that VC money came with a hefty pricetag for the community.

Actually the VCs are shitting their pants as MakerBot sheds its first and second most valuable resources - good employees and the community.
Though I thought the same thing when I heard some of the most recent decisions.
