I don't think many people are seriously suggesting RedisLabs don't have the right to pursue a valid business model to secure the future of themselves and redis in general; I mean, look at elastic search, that's exactly what they do with their extension pack, and it works very well for them. No one bats an eyelid about that. > If the Commons Clause license is confusing or ambiguous to you, simply treat it as a commercial license... I have to say, this really is the issue for me. It's got both Apache and Commons in the title, that probably means its even more free than the apache license right? No? Wait... so I can use it for free? Or am I reselling it? I guess I need a lawyer if I'm going to touch this stuff now right? Mmm... no. I think that we can safely put all of those modules in the 'never use for any purpose' box, thanks. This kind of thing, seems like deceptive conduct, and that's something that is anathema to stable businesses looking for infrastructure to use. Licensing is important, it should be clear and unambiguous in naming and purpose.
