Can you clarify why the GPL doesn't work for you. Clearly you release all the source code for your product. Is it that you have downstream customers that make modifications to your source code, and they don't want to have to release their changes for their products?

Yes, we have customers using CrateDB as part of their proprietary product.

Also the SSPL is so vague, that we probably would not only have to release CrateDB itself - which we already do, but also everything we use for the services we provide. Also we could never make any kind of deals with OEMs, etc.
