I'm kind of glad this is all happening because it provides a nice example to point to when I try to explain why I don't want to be dependent on a vendor for these sorts of things.
For real, it's been the most validating of my use-open-source ethos than any other examples I can think of! For this open source isn't about the cost, it's about the vendor dependence/neutrality, and that's quite important when it becomes essentially a business requirement.
