I get your point, and thanks for the discussion. My thought is that even software with an OSI approved license can be moved to a non-OSI license at any time. So you can't actually insure against the dystopian future you are concerned about. The only way to insure against that is if the software IP is not owned by a company. It will be interesting to see how this plays out with TimescaleDB, Confluent, Starburst, Grafana, and a host of others - none of their code is owned by a foundation (like PostgreSQL is) but is instead owned by a company. And those companies have ( and will continue to ) do thing that protect their customers, employees, and stakeholders. Thanks for the clarifications - I understand now better the concerns of the OSI-favorable community.
