> the only people using mongodb in a commercial setting are those who are paying 10gen for a commercial license or those that don't know they are violating the AGPL license.
It is not clear to me exactly what the problem is from the message. Are we now discouraged to use MongoDB as a database (from startup to university), or writing MongoDB database driver based on existing MongoDB language driver such as pymongo or writing on top of MongoDB's database driver?
Yeah that definitely helps clarifying the issue, I think.
As long as Openstack only use Apache licensed code >>from MondgoDB Inc.<< and diligently avoids using any open source contributions from any community contributor to the MongoDB ecosystem, then you remain compliant the your CLA.
I wouldn't have known the APGL licensed database and the conflict with MongoDB, Inc. licensed code and community code. I guess now all ORM built upon pymongo used in commercial settings is that trouble zone then?
This is a huge bummer. Definitely an alert for those looking forward to use MongoDB at commercial settings as parent said.
