Will this cause a significant shift away from Ubuntu?
In the startup world, much less so in the enterprise world,
I hear a lot of "We dont use Windows because it is too expensive
and we dont wish to spend the money on licenses".
(There are also many people who are just ideologically opposed to Windows)
I hear the same thing when it comes to RDBMS and other vital software,
Oracle, Microsoft are too expensive to license.
Having worked in both the business Enterprise world,
"We dont use any software if we cant license support and .. "
with startups
"We dont use any software that is not free and open source"
Aside from the fact that they are developing the next unicorn SaaS that
they will charge $$$$ for.
It might mean more adoption on the Enterprise side, though RedHat or one
already provides this.
I would think it could cause a shit in the startup crowd unless they
figure Ubuntu will be available for free as well so they dont want ot
worry about license costs
