It surprised me as well. Maybe because of Zed. I like him though. I also have a distant memory of Mongrel2 being licensed under AGPL. In fact I just googled it

  I feel like Zed gave up on this project too early. He created it, gave it an initial promotional push and then "turned it over to the community." There were a faithful few people who kept contributing to the project, but it did not have anyone pushing the project forward significantly after Zed left.

  I liked him, and then one day he was being a complete asshole about something (as I recall he was making shitty comments about people who buy Apple products), I tweeted him saying 'using inflammatory and hostile language doesn't help you get your point across', and he said 'THANKS DAD' and blocked me. So, I dunno. He's a smart programmer and a smart person, but flipping your shit on Twitter doesn't really make a whole lot of sense.

    I like him too, he's brash, works on interesting stuff, and most importantly, put it out there. His public persona engenders a strong response from some and has opened him up to a lot of criticism, which he's proven (countless times) he doesn't handle well. But then who does really?
