I’m the Nomad Eng Lead and while licensing is out of my control we have a lot of users in a similar position to you: not knowing what might someday could be construed competition. I can’t make any promises but will do whatever I can to give you confidence that Nomad is still the right tool for your job.

Clearly you have good intentions and offer your support voluntarily, but

> I can’t make any promises...

really sums it all up in light of these big changes, and simply put the big picture (aka licensing) is what people build and bet their professional lives on.

It sounds to me like GP thinks Nomad still IS the right tool if they’re freezing its version.

Problem is with the license not the tool. It’s nice that you’re trying to do what you can, but it’s like trying to sell roof insurance to a homeless person.
