I'd like to see something resembling the Linux model. In the case of Docker, a foundation built around a suite of open source tools that's contributed to by pledges from all the big companies that use the tool. Maybe that means podman has a reliable source of funds for maintenance and improvement. What I don't like is having these critical tools directly in the hands of a single for-profit corporation, at least where it can be avoided.

If we want that I feel like there should be a community buy out. Just so that they have something to return to investors. Just so that they have incentive to play nice and not Hudson-up the process. You shouldn't be able to build a critical piece of infrastructure and have nothing to show for it. Community buy-out should be a viable exit plan.
