I'm not complaining and it's good what they are doing, but 100% it is not.

"Absolutely everything?

Almost. There are two components, Soyuz and Codehosting, that we're
keeping internal. They're part of Canonical's "secret sauce" in
business areas that we care a lot about, and for now the costs to us
of opening them up outweigh the benefits. "
