For any of the Cloudflare team that frequents HN, curious if you have an eventual plan to open-source Pingora? I recognize it may stay proprietary if you consider it to be a differentiator and competitive advantage, but this blog post almost has a tone of "introducing this new technology!" as if it's in the cards for the future.

- sullivanmatt 4y agoThanks Matt, not sure how I missed that. Glad to hear it!
