In response to Gil Yehuda's comments on MongoDB and the AGPL (here http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-March/030510.html), I understand the concern about the AGPL. But in this case it's completely, absolutely unfounded. As mentioned earlier, MongoDB Inc. wants people to use MongoDB, the project. That's why we wrapped the server code (AGPL) in an Apache license (drivers). Basically, for 99.999% of the world's population, you can use MongoDB under the cover of the Apache license. If you'd like more assurance, we're happy to provide it.

We want people using the world's most popular NoSQL database with the world's most popular open source cloud (OpenStack). I think our track record on this is 100% in the affirmative. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
