A lot of the hostility on this thread is coming from people who are not actually a part of the LiveCode community. People love to sprout opinions about stuff they don't use, are not invested in, and don't have any familiarity with those involved in it. If people commenting here cared to check on the LiveCode mailing lists, they'd see that the overall sentiment is positive regarding this change. That people value having LiveCode Ltd with more resources (aka money to work on stuff) more than they value having the GPL engine around. No one is treating this as a scummy or bad move, people are often saying "we gave this a good try it is time to pivot".
