Kerf1 has only been open source for a fairly short time, and prior to that it was proprietary. ngn/k is tremendously less feature-rich than Q/k4, has some built-in constraints that make building large programs difficult, and does not come with the "batteries included" necessary for building distributed systems. Neither is currently a credible alternative to kdb+ for production environments.
