They are getting there. They already open sourced their js engine [0] and some parts of the rendering engine like the WebGL stuff [1].

I remember reading that it's a goal of them that they want to open source it, but it's not an overnight process.

ChakraCore is definitely a step in the right direction. Kudos for that.

Their WebGL thing isn't, though. That's just a code dump, a year outdated, with no history. It's still developed in private and isn't getting updates.
