- bcantrill 3y agoWhat ended up happened there? Has Pekko gained momentum? If so, it would be helpful to add it to a list of these: part of the problem is that moving to the B(U)SL is viewed as having no risk -- when it fact, it is risking everything (e.g., Sun/Oracle and Hudson/Jenkins).
- monksy 3y agoLightbend put the cutoff on version 2.7, claims no more updates. They pushed the actual enforcement back 1 year. We'll see this fall about when this hits. Pekko is playing catchup right now. Also, they're a bit of a small crowd. (As in .. under lightbend Akka has developed a crowd.. but Pekko has to struggle to form now)
