Redis: "we're doing AGPL again now!"

Proceeds to talk around the issue because they can't bring themselves to admit that they've a mistake, and somehow expects people to trust them again despite showing no evidence that they've learned anything

I'm generally fascinated by this thing where people try to undo a fuckup by just reverting to the old situation and then expect 'business as usual', clearly not understanding that trust is a thing you build up on a social level, and not some deterministic outcome of a set of policies

@joepie91 is antirez still at the helm? if so, this is all the more disappointing - he did a great job with the project in the early days, excellent focus on documentation, helpful responses in issues and with contributors, very responsive on security issues, etc. - but I've heard a few not-so-good things about the redis project governance in recent years.

@gsuberland From what I understand, he left, and then they fucked up the licensing, and now he's back, and it's AGPL again
