> Free software is an ideology, not just a license.

Yes and people shouldn't enforce ideology on top of each other. I am speaking this as an free software advocate too.

the fact of the matter is open source is still barely fundable and I am pretty sure that they evaluated multiple decisions to come up to this regarding how fundable it is and other factors.

If we have to indoctrinate someone into our ideology, it means that our ideology is unable to gain weight by its own merit. No, let open source do the work and welcome people for who are now open source. Have open arms to everyone who open sources their work & incentive them to do so with a happy heart.

Open source is about freedom. And being honest, If they wrote the code themselves, then its their freedom to have it in open source or not.

I for one, welcome another great open source! Thanks for going open source and Good luck to skip in future!

I know Open source has some issues regarding funding etc. so I hope that people donate to skip & make the project sustainable!

Have a nice day skip team!
