From the Orion FAQ:

> Is Orion open-source?

> We’re working on it! We’ve begun with some of our components and intend to open more in the future.

> Forking WebKit, porting hundreds of APIs and writing a browser app from scratch has been challenging for our small team. Properly maintaining an open-source project takes time and resources we’re short on at the moment, so if you want to contribute at this time, please consider becoming active on orionfeedback.org.

Isn't Webkit GPL? How is it not open source?

Just a general rule of thumb that has served me well: If it's GPL, Apple wouldn't be using it. Apple hates the GPL as it is the antithesis of their operating model.
