Nobody likes being rugpulled. But lately, it's going around like a virus.Why are so many former open source darlings selling out or relicensing? And is there...
The way I see it is that we don’t know the content of Apache 3.0, nor have a vote to chose what license they adapt in the end. Does Apache have a good track record? Yes, but it is getting diffcult to put trust in sonething today. It’s still a rug under, or fail safe as you name it, which is used by corprates today. I would rather have a framework/procedure in place preventing it from happening from the get go.
ADDITION: I haven’t read Apache’s CLA yet so it might or might not contains copyright grant clause.
