For how long…?
As long as the AGPL remains enforcable.
But I just moved to opensearch.
https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch
OpenSearch is a community-driven, open source fork of Elasticsearch and Kibana following the license change in early 2021.
The tl;dr is that we will be adding AGPL as another license option next to ELv2 and SSPL in the coming weeks.
Well, it is still yet to come and other license isn’t going away; i will wait and see
it kinda feels like they need more licenses to complete the collection idk
I don’t understand how their decision 3 years ago “worked” and that’s why they’re changing the license again.
So how does triple licensed code work as an end user? They have multiple packages and i pick the one with the license i like? Or just one package and i just declare im using the AGPL ‘essence’ in my instance?
See, thats how they getcha now.
You have to buy a elasticsearch brand AGPL scented candle to light while you install the packages. If you aren’t smelling their official blend of sandalwood, jasmine and developer blood, it reverts back to Elv2.
You might say that the definition is ‘Elastic’
Haha, wow that was crazy, right everyone? Geeze, why did we even do that thing we did? What was that even? So weird!
Anyway, everything is back to the way it was before! Maybe even better! You can all come back now from the various forks and open alternatives you’ve spent the last 18 months migrating to!
That’s a good one
True true…
Having contacted them to get a contract going for the non free license before I doubt they actually give a shit about Foss. They literally wouldn’t give me a price without knowing how many employees the company I was being outsourced to had. And we wanted to self host so it wasn’t even a matter of their costs they literally charge based on what you look like and the schemes were insane they would charge us for amount of active systems and their traffic when we were literally self hosting them
Literally jumping
That’s where I stopped reading.
I work contract. I hope the ‘litchally’ morons never find out they’re paying a tax - just a few percent - for being morons.
