If Amazon had to do enough maintenance work they’d just fork it and do it on their own proprietary version. They have literally done that.

This goes back to my original point. You’re living in fantasy land.

I don’t see the problem with that. Good for them. How does that affect you?

What exactly is the nature of this fantasyland? I have to have said I wanted or expected something for that to make any sense. You make silly claims based on nothing. That is not an argument.

In fact it's the other way around. Expecting to enjoy both the benefits of OSS and the benefits of collecting rent at the same time for the same thing is the fantasyland.
