"To be clear though, Ansible Tower itself will still be a licensed product offering from Red Hat, but the code that builds Ansible Tower releases is open sourced, and is available in the AWX Project." This is strictly speaking correct but I think the author is implying that AWX code will get proprietized in Ansible Tower, which is not correct. Normally, Red Hat does not alter upstream open source licenses in its product offerings.
