I don't see how you can possibly think that the development of djgpp 
is less than completely open. Yes, you won't see much discussion of
development issues on comp.os.msdos.djgpp, but that is because it is
mostly an end-user support forum. The development work happens on
the djgpp-workers mailing list, which is open to anyone who wants to
subscribe there, and archived on www.delorie.com. Plus the very second
link you at the top of the djgpp pages is to the CVS database, where
you can get sources for the very latest in-progress versions. What
could possibly be more open than this? If you don't choose to follow
all this work, that is just because you aren't subscribed or looking
in the right places...
