Yes, apps can be in both 'stores'.

No, Open like 'free beer', everybody can publish appications here. Some apps have source code available, others - don't.

As @ggabriel mentioned, currently OpenRepos doesn't have any QA, restrictions or anything like that.
Refer to publisher reputation, application rating, and comments as measurement tool

In general words: if someone with bad intensions uploads malware, it can damage/compromise your jolla/information. This also can happen with official store, since there is only binary package upload.
