That isn't what your OpenPhoenux page says:

  "Open Hardware Devices.

  Letux 2804 / GTA04 Smartphone"

You're also contradicting your own previous statements:

  "I see the role of GDC [Golden Delicious Computers] to provide future
  open hardware but remain software agnostic"

This admission makes your announcement here seem deceitful:

  "we are happy that we can make an announcement to the Free and
  Open Hardware Community, right in time for X-mas and New Year:  We
  have finally tested, understood and patched the bugs of the
  first GTA04 sample board"
