Stable bindings doesn’t mean open source, so I don’t see how that tells you it’s still on the table
It doesn’t make sense for an internal library for an open source application, it that case it’s not open source.
To be fair? Nowhere are they even suggesting they would release the SDK as FOSS, but they do say their password manager is open source. It seems like they just want a FOSS shell so they can claim it’s open source for but keep their business logic closed source.

Why go through all the hoops if they are instead just could refuse patches? Open source doesn’t mean open to contributions, look at SQLite for example.
If they had the idea to release this open source they would have said so in clear words by now. They didn’t so I don’t have much hope, unless maybe if they get enough negative publicity to change their mind.
Why does VC need to ruin everything…
