What's the point of acquiring them instead of just sponsering the project? I'm trying to understand supabase's angle here and if this is good or bad news for non-supabase postgres users.

We sponsored/invested in them previously (over half a million USD). The benefit of acquiring is that the team can focus on the technology rather than the business/operations around it.

I hope this is the best outcome for the industry. If there are other postgres companies that would like to use oriole, feel free to reach out. It’s 100% open source and we’d love more design partners
