I understand not wanting to appear on "our incredible journey" blog or whatever with a bunch of sap, but surely more information can be made public without everyone emailing? Why shutting down? Why only a couple of weeks? Will the code be open sourced?
- dboreham 8y agoOpen source would be very interesting to me (at least). Looking at their GitHub, it appears only some minor components are currently open : https://github.com/backplane https://github.com/backplane
- mrkurt 8y agoCustomers got emails a few days before this, and they're getting a lot of help. It's easy to criticize but I think they're handling it pretty well.
- smalter 8y agoyou're the kind person helping me move from backplane to fly.io!
- mrkurt 8y agoThat's me!
- ineedasername 8y ago"A few days before this" really isn't "handling this pretty well". It's great that they (you?) are offering some assistance in transitioning to an alternative, but it's still a very crappy situation for customers during the holiday season with many people taking extra time off.
- lallysingh 8y agoConsidering the fact that they're going out of business, I wonder how many customers that is? Still a shitty time of year to do it, and a horribly small time window.
- kodablah 8y agoNot trying to criticize as I don't know the reasoning behind the decisions, hence my questions.
