They're misinformed about how it worked and what's changing.

Android has always taken the approach of it being developed in private and then having the full sources and commit history released for stable releases. Certain sub-projects were exceptions to this and had development in the open but most of it was done in private.

Stable releases of Android were open source and remain open source. Beta and Developer Preview releases were mostly not open source and remain that way.
