Yeah, releasing parts of Crowsnest as FOSS is a hotly debated topic internally. We would certainly be interested to talk to anyone who has experience running a business with a core product that is open source, especially if they were able to raise capital.

At Singly, we raised about $9mm of VC with 100% of our code open source. We saw that as absolutely essential in creating an ecosystem and it was a huge benefit in reducing customer concerns around lock in.

I like what you guys are doing and would be happy to chat if it's helpful!

Could be worth talking to Automattic, Acquia, Red Hat - lots of money there
