We won't necessarily open source all the acquired technology like we did with Gitter and RedHat does with every acquisition. We'll follow our buyer based open core model https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/commercial-open-source-business-strategies/ https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/commercial-open-sourc... Maybe the relevant product managers have more to say about the current plans.
- ddesanto 6y ago@joiningnow123 - Thanks for the question. We plan to open source all the fuzzing engines built by Fuzzit. We also plan to open source Peach Tech's protocol fuzzer however this will be some time next year when we begin integrating it.
- apple4ever 6y agoThe biggest disadvantage of the buyer based open core model is can completely ignore what the buyer wants (ex: reporters not to be charged the same as developers, because that makes no sense).
