Yep - that's correct. Since jQuery is a completely community-driven project and funded entirely by donations we wanted to open up right away to bring more people in. While we're rather confident in the direction that we're heading - doing it in a completely open manner is much more inline with what the jQuery project typically does.
thanks. i'm actually really glad to see you guys taking the lead on this initiative. jqtouch and sencha both have their shortcomings, but it sounds like this is addressing all of those (polished UI, easy to pick up, well-documented, cross-platform/cross-device).
