At the moment of the fork and when new copyrights were added to almost all files, there were no significant changes. Most of the kernel files were exactly the same, line by line. New copyrigths were practically just added to unmodified kernel files (process management, GUI, TCP/IP, disk drivers, etc).

So, that's the reason why M64 is closed source.
