does this mean we'll see a new flurry of twitter clones? or that Twitter now feels secure enough in its market position and brand that giving away the core messaging tech won't impact their growth?

Ari (nice meeting you yesterday!), we may, but if history shows, when you are the one releasing the open source software, that means you are also the one controlling the development. You will always be one step ahead of your competition, and as your competition evolves, they have to also publish their changes for you to use as well. Twitter knows their software inside and out, and can release features much faster than that of their competition because of that.
Not just that, but this isn't new Technology. As I mentioned, this is just a Ruby version of Perl's POE Framework, which has been around for years. It still hasn't affected Twitter's success.
