I think I agree with someone else in this thread. This reads like spin and fluff. We all make quality improvements when we use open source software because we run into our own issues. Were also on a hacker forum, you don't need to respond to me like were at some business partner meeting.

What do you want redis to do though as they are run out of business by amazon and the rest? Who pays for the rest of the developers?

It reads like Amazon is trying to bully their code supplier. The code was out there, and without negotiating Amazon decided on their own "one developer sending TLS upstream seems fair". I'm sure amazon will negotiate with Redis for some amount in the end. Or have the one developer write the drop in replacement if the code is only worth one persons time and some other random commits? Then maybe Amazon can even open source it with no restrictions?

Do you at least see and understand the perspective, that giant companies are making tons of money off software that is out there from smaller people. Giving back what is perceived not that much if anything?
