-1 for this

I do understand the intent and reason behind this, however, in addition to
the reasons Anthony provided, I do not believe this community should carry
the burden of testing compatibility with proprietary/commercial software.
Even though Geode has its history in GemFire, I can only see the community
supporting official Geode releases. It would set a bad precedent to allow
for any part of the Geode code ( source or test ) to depend on any
commercial code.

If any company wants to make sure their software works with Geode, it is
their responsibility.

My $.02,
