Is this not the best thing that could happen? Like now its in maintenance, it can be forked without any potential license change in the future, or any new features that are in that license change... This allows anyone to continue working on this, right? Or did i miss something?

Re: MinIO is now in maintenance-mode
#22I thought they were pivoting towards close it and trying to monetize this? That got backlash so now it’s just getting dropped entirely? People get to do whatever they want but bit jarring to go from this is worth something people will pay for to maintenance mode in quick succession
That's literally what the commit shows that they're doing?

#23Hopefully no one is shocked or surprised.
I'm both shocked and not surprised. Lots of questions: Are they doing that bad from the outcry? Or are they just keeping a private version and going completely commercial only? If so, how do they bypass the AGPL in doing so, I assume they had contributions under the AGPL.
Commercial only, they will replace the agpl contributions from external people. (Or at least they will say that)

#24Any good alternatives?

It is useful to remember that one may fork at the commit before a license change.

#26Does anyone have any recommendations for a simple S3-wrapper to a standard dir? I've got a few apps/services that can send data to S3 (or S3 compatible services) that I want to point to a local server I have, but they don't support SFTP or any of the more "primitive" solutions. I did use a python local-s3 thing, but it was... not good.

#27Need to start reconsidering the approach now and looking for alternatives

It's not a fully featured s3 compatible service, like MinIO, but we used it to great success as a local on-prem s3 read/write cache with AWS as the backing S3 store. This avoided expensive network egress charges as we wanted to process data in both AWS as well as in a non-AWS GPU cluster (i.e. a neocloud)
