Just to be crystal clear about the open source part: the code for all container images will continue to be maintained, kept up to date, and publicly accessible on GitHub (https://github.com/bitnami/containers https://github.com/bitnami/containers) under the Apache 2 license. What Bitnami is discontinuing is the publishing of prebuilt images to public registries. However, the build code remains available, so users can still build the images themselves and push them to their own registries by running a couple of commands.
