Hi Robert,
1.) Product direction. We are actively working on a set of products
that will initially extend our current commercial uni/cluster products
but will eventually replace them. The Myosotis product represents a
part of that strategy. You'll notice it is licensed under GPL. It
is our intention to license the new products under GPL using the MySQL
model--you can use it for open source stuff but if you want to get out
of the GPL terms you buy a license. It's a common business model that
helps make house payments.
Does that also mean that new additions to the Sequoia code base will be
contributed under a GPL license? The whole Sequoia package would then
become APL/GPL dual-licensed?
Would that also mean that contributors will have to give up their
copyright to Continuent (like it is the case for MySQL) for their
contributions so that Continuent could dual-license GPL/commercial its
products?
Thanks for the clarification,
Emmanuel
