> Over 97% of contributions to the NATS.io server were made by employees of Synadia and its predecessor company

Seems like a failed CNCF project. I guess synadia can fork nats and build their own, but the CNCF nats would basically lose all the contributors so what is the point of keeping the trademark?

A good warning for those looking at CNCF projects to audit where the commits are coming from. I passed up using mayastor/OpenEBS, and one of the main reasons was that almost 100% of the commits were from a single for-profit company who could just bail on the project at any time. I ended up going with Rook which has a much healthier spread of commiters.
