Eh… I understand exactly where they’re coming from. If you’re trying to make money with a product then this is something that can happen. You can argue all day long that it’s no longer technically “open source”, but IMO for 99% of usecases (anything that’s not a Confluence integration), it still is… even still non-copyleft.
Of course there will still be people that argue open source is antithetical to capitalism in general… but not everyone agrees with you.
Yes, I agree. Too many people are overly obsessed with the exact definition of “Open Source”. But come on, this now “proprietary” software is only tiny bit different from an open source software and shares almost no similarity with a typical proprietary software.
And more importantly, this new license is even arguably better than an open core model.
