It's not been open source since 2.0 was released AFAIK.
I used to be involved in the development, but quit when the maintainers went commercial (rather, I found my CVS account suddenly gone and a message on the developers' list where we could pay for a license).
P.S. I might have some old 1.x versions still. Message me if you're interested in those.

Have a look at MVN Forum. It is open source and developed using Servlets, JSPs etc in a similar manner to Jive. I have not used it in a large project yet but it looks pretty good.
Shame that Jive is now longer free. I believe that if you purchase the commercial licence you do actually get the source code.

Well, they have to.
A lot of the older code is under an Apache-like license or (L)GPL so they have to distribute that on request.
The licensing code is completely closed AFAIK, except to a select few people who develop it.
