Hi Jonathon,

No, currently the texts are NOT open source and you have to pay for
getting the books. There are still some price discussions ongoing.
At the moment the official price is $35 for schools. Special discounts
are possible. I'm not the one who decides about pricing. Today in
the afternoon there will be a call where the pricing is discussed. Maybe
I know more on Monday.
