We'll roll out a change that releases source as GPL after 3-4 years next week, actually. I do appreciate these comments and points.

- Onawa 2y agoWhy is it necessary to wait? You've already seen the feedback, if you're going to change the license, why promise to do it later?
- deleted 2y ago[deleted]
- tonyhb 2y agoIt's already planned, and rushing out a legal change on a Friday night ahead of plans is less than ideal.
- zx8080 2y agoIs there any guarantee ("don't take promise from a company") the license won't be changed to something more closed some time afterwards?
- necovek 2y agoSo "eventually OSS"? That's certainly better, especially so for some use cases (company goes under), but it isn't OSS either.
- snicker7 2y agoWhy not dual license with AGPL?
- nickphx 2y agodon't let that stop you from using it marketing though.. if you're misleading with your marketing it makes me wonder what else is not as it is claimed.
- PeterZaitsev 2y agoBSL Is also not Open Source, it is another kind of Source Available issue. Of course you're free chose the license what is right of your business, but trying to use Open Source name in deceptive marketing is the problem.
