open jailbreak P0sixninja plans to create OpenJailbreak

Hacker p0sixninja (Joshua Hill) tweeted that he plans to create OpenJailbreak, a new repository of open source jailbreak components on Twitter earlier today.

Ok, I hate redsn0w, I hate sn0wbreeze, and I hate 6.1.3. I’m ready to get this #openjailbreak off the ground

Elaborating further he told:

Essentially it’s going to be a repository of open source jailbreak components that I created over the years. So much of my code has been hacked up and incorporated into other projects, it’s becoming very fragmented. There’s no central repository to maintain all this code, to allow other developers to submit patches or help layout a roadmap for what new features and abilities will be added in the future.

Surenix is reportedly working on the development of the website for the repository and Hill is organizing that components that will be posted.

Hill also says “this is just a small part of an ultimate plan” perhaps eluding to another recent tweet which said, “I got a lot of amazing things coming to you all soon. think bigger than jailbreak ;)

Notably, developer Ryan Petrich posted an image on Twitter earlier today which appears to indicate that there already is a jailbreak for iOS 7.
