The central message that they are caving in to some nebulous group of potentially cash-rich projects because those devs whine about GPLv3 is understandable if not exactly admirable. I mean, who does not read the following and think "you could make that 4 out of the top 20"?
Maybe if MySQL, its offshoot MariaDB, and our graph brothers Neo4j weren’t the only GPL flag flyers in the top 20 databases, it might be easier to gain adoption with GPL
That compounded with the following trite slogan actually detracts from what should have just been a simple announcement instead of extended squirming:
code freedom is being overtaken by developer freedom
