This is rich coming from Redhat that does shady things with subscription license agreements and open-source software.
- jhall1468 8y agoNothing Redhat does is shady. There's nothing wrong with license agreements for closed source software, or even license-agreements that support open source software. The latter is how open source companies make money.
- nwmcsween 8y agoThe license agreements restrict use of the work on top of the GPL, same as mongo does..
- jhall1468 8y agoNo, the Mongo license explicitly forbids cloud providers from using the software without open sourcing the entire stack. Unless you have an example of Red Hat doing the same, I'd retract the statement.
- nwmcsween 8y agoAnd the Redhat service license restricts redistribution of the binaries and modifications or you get blacklisted and cannot get any updates
