Sounds like you're describing the SQLite model. Completely permissive license but companies pay for support (or custom features).

- samhuk 4y agoGenuinely curious (I don't know all that much about these things): To what extent does the SQLite model incentivize poor documentation since that would drive use of paid support services?
- rchaud 4y agoIf the documentation is poor, the implementers won't even be able to get it to a point where they would consider paying for consulting.
- samhuk 4y agoI mean poor enough that its easy to get set up but more complex usage ends up requiring support services, by which lock in has started occuring.
- ruuda 4y agoFor what it's worth, SQLite's documentation is one of the best among all software I've ever used. It's clear, detailed, well-organized, and everything is documented.
