CNCF exit

[sreenin83]

There was a post mentioning NATS exit from CNCF. Is this the case? Can you please comment on the direction of the project and its commitment to CNCF.

Please see https://www.synadia.com/blog/nats-server-next-steps and cncf/toc#1632 for all the details. We are remaining under the CNCF.

Thanks Neil. What does the below paragraph mean.

"Synadia had been considering an enterprise fork of the NATS Server under the Business Source License (BSL). We believed that a BSL version of the server, combined with an exception for non-production use and an automatic reversion to Apache 2.0 after two years, provided an acceptable balance between delivering for our customers and still maintaining our commitments to the open source community"

Synadias main focus will be on the BSL version than the open source version going forward?

"had been considering" and "we believed" should be read as past tense, that is no longer our direction. We will be continuing to maintain the Apache 2.0 version.
