It's also disappointing to see an OpenStack member company producing software which uses Oslo libraries, has its packaging based on PBR, et cetera... but then redistributing it under a very restrictive proprietary license agreement. Worse, it contains code _deleted_ from the openstack/cinder repository without any attribution. While that may be legal (I am not a lawyer) since the original copyright holders of those contributions are probably the same as those redistributing the proprietary replacement, it's pretty distasteful to basically move community-maintained source code out of OpenStack and into a vendor's non-freely-licensed library.
