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...
Hmm yep, you’re right. Wasn’t aware of this, funny.
All CLAs aren’t created equal, IMHO. I ain’t a lawyer, but looks to me like K8s’s grants the CNCF a license to the use and patent your code, but you remain the copyright owner. As far as these things go, this one doesn’t look that terrible, at first glance. Or, at least, I’ve seen worse.
I just found out some softwares around infrastructures also uses CLA, including:
To my surprise, even Golang core uses CLA too.
EDIT: Add more to the list
EDIT 2: Envoy Proxy also hosted by CNCF uses DCO instead of CLA. Interesting.
It looks like very difficult to bulid an infra without some components uses CLA.
Aren’t K8s and Go fundamentally Google projects?
Golang I believe yes but aint k8s are now belongs to CNCF where multiple companies behind?
