For me it was so from beginning (but iirc it wasn't implicitly titled
somewhere and I'm just trying to check what others think).

Since declaring openness and providing openness are two big differences
problem comes when are we trying to deploy activities with non Sugar Platform
dependencies (here java). Our main deployment agnostic activities portal
is ASLO and it(like idea of .xo itself) doesn't work well here. So we
are failed with providing openness.
