I'm not sure if there have been any efforts towards this, but in my opinion it would be awesome if the very old versions of Game Maker (like Game Maker 5, 6) would be open-sourced.
Of course I know that Game Maker is proprietary software, but I think those versions don't generate any income anymore.
AFAIK the engine has been completely rewritten, so it should not cause any security issues to publish these old versions.
I have fond memories of these old engines and it would be amazing to tinker with the source.
Has this been discussed already? Do we know anything about the state of the old sources? Where could I contact officials about this?
