Let the open-source witch hunt begin!
The so-called “leader” of the open source community, Elastic, just got caught red-handed!
Let the rumors surface around LinkedIn this is what happened: after those pesky Amazon lawyers messed with Elastic’s brand. But hey, what an excellent opportunity to create and settle law issues the old-fashioned way!
Don’t worry, we saw the warning signs, not like the whole “Fair Source” thing will gain traction (or did everyone already know about it already? Did we just do it too late? or just in time?). There are a few “unlucky” companies. Elastic went back to, the infamous AGPL after its stint with proprietary options, “free and Open”, (the horror it is even more confusing?) forcing Amazon to fork Eclipse.
For those who came late, the whole, we all know what AWS has always been about now OpenSearch, (they should call it Open Fail, for all we love). As we’ve finally, come to terms With Time. “I did this” or “I wouldn’t be doing this with Elastic if I were alone, (the AGPL was for a very egocentric reason),.
“open source”, though! Who knows? No, there’s still More To This Story, No? Elastic has now finally given us a license? Who wants to guess?
For a long time We’re sure that you like, have a few answers!
