Joran from TigerBeetle here!

TigerBeetle is our open source contribution. We want to make a technical contribution to the world. And we have priorities on the list of things we want to support, and support properly, with high quality, in time.

At the same time, it's important I think that we encourage ourselves and each other here, you and I, to show respect to projects that care about craftsmanship and doing things properly, so that we don't become entitled and take open source projects and maintainers in general for granted.

Let's keep it positive!

Wait, is it open source?? Since when? I always thought it was proprietary

Apache 2.0 since day 0, since it came out of a non-profit central bank switch by the Gates Foundation, which is also Apache 2.0.

Our view is that this kind of infrastructure is simply too valuable, too critical, not to be open source.
