>JuiceFS has introduced S3 gateway since v0.11. The feature is implemented based on the MinIO S3 Gateway.

The MinIO S3 Gateway was deprecated: https://blog.min.io/deprecation-of-the-minio-gateway/

I don't know if JuiceFS is treating it like a fork that they are maintaining, or if they have other plans.

We have a fork of MinIO at https://github.com/juicedata/minio, which will be maintained by us.

Damn, I was hoping it was pre the AGPL cut-over, especially in light of juicefs's Apache 2

Yes, JuiceFS uses the Apache 2 fork [1] directly (master branch), but also provide a full featured S3 gateway (gateway branch) under AGPL for people' choice.

You may want to specify reasons for wanting a “free as in beer” license, otherwise it just sounds greedy. (Not a swipe at you; I’ve fallen into this trap more than once.)

We have to do better to support open source with money. GitHub likes don’t pay the bills. AGPL is fine.
