I believe Etherpad was open sourced. I suspect there are other reasons why Salesforce went ahead with the buyout. Perhaps licensing?

  Talent acquisition?

    Yep, got to be (congrats guys). Etherpad/ShareJS code is great, but limited without the brains to fully exploit the capabilities.

    Interesting. How about talking an existing product and reimplementing it? It would be different but not by design. I wonder whether this is a good strategy for a bootstrapped team.
