The way I remember it is that the source code for the version of AO included in the one-click versions wasn't made available, which *would* be the opposite of what open source is all about. Checking the main Trilogyrelease page, I see it links to this explanation which seems to say basically that, but Google turns up this post that seems to contradict it, so I don't know what's up.
