Redis modules and the Commons Clause

Redis modules and the Commons Clause

Any such restrictions make the software non-free. It is plain and simple. It is sad to see Redis Labs moving to non-free software, but that is the fact. Trying to mislead the public with naming and FAQ and statements will not change the fact. "Commons Clause" added to *any* license makes it non-free. That's it.

Distributors will likely fork the last free version of the modules and move on from there without Redis Labs, like it has happened numerous times in the past.
