Given this the Open Source Hardware group, it's worth noting that the BeagleBone is Open Source Hardware. The design files are available here: http://beagleboard.org/hardware/design/

Unfortunately, at this time, the Raspberry Pi can not be considered Open Source Hardware. The schematic has been released, but the board layout has not yet been released. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has commented that they would like to release it at some point in the future.
