This is a very tough announcement for any customers relying on the Fauna service. The announcement itself hides the all key details, clicking into the FAQ reveals the date is not several months away but in fact 2 months 11 days away, and there is no FaunaDB open source release to start saving your own ass today.

The word choice of “several” feels a bit mis-leading. Reminds me of the Big Bang Theory quote:
That is not a lot of weeks. In fact, that's the bare minimum to get to the plural "weeks".
...agree, even spending time singing on anything else in the first paragraph instead of breaking the bad news WITH THE DATE first feels rather off.
oh wow that is very fast. I would really hope the open source version appears on github tomorrow then to dive in and migrate.
yes, or even just be able to stand up your own for a longer period while you figure out how to migrate to something else altogether.
