Ping seems generally confused about how to discuss commercial support of open source projects, not just Cloudera. Note his reference to "Northscale, parent company of Memcached" is even sillier. AFAIK, the only "parent" I'd think of for memcached, Brad Fitz, is still ensconced at goog. I've talked to the Northscale guys, sounds like their onto good stuff and I'm not faulting them (just as I wouldn't fault Cloudera), Ping just needs a copy editor.
