Once concern I have with this is the use of LGPL 3.0 *only*. This will not
be compatible with a GPL 4 or newer. (The upgrade clause in the LGPLv2
that allowed that was unfortunately dropped in the LGPLv3, now you have to
put the "or later" clause on the LGPLed code to be compatible with newer
GPL versions.)
Also, the discussion under:
https://discourse.writefreesoftware.org/t/redis-switches-to-dual-source-a...
makes it pretty clear that the person behind the fork has no intent to make
any compromises on this issue.
For the redis executable, I guess this is not a blocking issue, but they
also intend to fork the hiredis library (which currently is still BSD-
licensed upstream [
https://github.com/redis/hiredis]), and there, LGPL 3.0
only would really be a problem in the long run.
