Open source Kaduria?

Being in a vulnerable state I thought about making Kaduria open source. Then people would be able to follow the development and get an idea how it works. The only downside is that it would reveal all the secrets of the gameplay. Then again, I could release the source only to a certain point in the development, because believe it or not the content is seriously lacking at the moment, there is not much of it yet.

There is also a possibility of "variants" emerging, but it's extremely unlikely. Managing source code and project of this type and size just isn't that fun or productive, I know it best myself. I have thought about open source many times over the years, but maybe the time is right now. Still, I would first like to create a minimum amount of content and at least a version of the role-playing system, so people could actually play the game already.

I wonder if this would be a good idea or not.
