I couldn't agree more!
Maybe this posting is a bit out of the main area of interest in this group
but my company is
at the moment researching other options to the Oracle database, InstantDB
looks lika a good
alternative for our smaller projects and databases, but the problem is that
Lutris "says"
they're supposed to release it to the Open Source (as it was from the
beginning as I understood)
but they haven't really specified when. We do not really want to take the
risk of starting
to build stuff for a database when the day comes and Lutris changes their
minds and demands
us for $$$$$ for a license. What is the deal here really? Is IDB going to be
Open Source, and if
so, why isn't it that already?

PS. I do not want to offend anyone. Just thought I should ask since there's
a lot of people
wondering.

I don't want to offend anyone, but the most useful code for the community
would
be the source code of IDB :-)
