So, both gdc & ldc are open-source?
Yes.
What about standard libs?
They're open source, too (boost license for phobos, is said to be even
more liberal than BSD license, there is an alternative standard lib for
D1 - tango[1] - that uses a BSD license and the "Academic Free License
v3.0"[2]).
Also, there are already several people maintaining/developing Phobos
(not just Walter and Andrei Alexandrescu).
