NVIDIA Plotting Open-Source Strategy?

According to an AIB partner, NVIDIA is planning an open-source counterattack against ATI/AMD. Since this past September, AMD has been increasingly open-source friendly with their Novell partnership to deliver the RadeonHD driver and releasing open specifications. We have received information that NVIDIA is reportedly planning an increased open-source presence. Does this mean a cleaner "nv" driver? Open specifications? Jointly working with the Nouveau developers? Open sourcing part(s) of their blob? It's not known just yet.

We are working on confirming this information and finding out additional details. However, by the sounds of it, don't expect to see anything sooner than Q3~Q4'08.
