I've watched pieces of the presentation, but not the whole thing. Is
it clear at this point exactly how free/open the entire stack is going
to be? I.e. will it have dependencies on proprietary services to work
or work well?

It could be quite compelling. I'm happy to talk to them about early
access on behalf of interested Wikimedia volunteers.
