Not many details on this one (if the entire mouse will be open source, including schematics or only the firmware), but still a huge fucking step for everyone, specially for modders and users outside of Windows (finally we´ll be able to have their mice be compatible with projects like Piper, for example).

This could be really cool

Trust me, this is huge. I´m not a modder myself, but I follow people who are, and the amounts of people that make custom 3D printed mouse shells based on Logitech´s G305 for its wireless and price are huge. It´s untapped market for these companies, good for the consumers and a marketing boost for open source.
