Hum, I think the problem is that Dart may be technically open source, but it's not a standard. In addition to that you can publish the source but being truly open involves more than that: see the open governance index for an example: http://www.readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/08/android-is-the-least-open-of-a.php http://www.readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/08/android-is-the-le... It involves things like multi-vendor support, open project management & roadmapping, standards bodies where applicable, etc. These are all things Dart doesn't have.
