The reason I asked is that once they get purchased by, say, Google or Facebook, their cloud services will probably get either shut down, or severely constrained. I'm not interested in sinking resources into a platform based on question marks.
We will definitely be releasing this, we consider it a promise we made to our Kickstarter backers.
We'll probably do a small beta as we get the local cloud ready for release to make sure things are easy to use and work as expected. Since it'll be open source, I'm hoping the beta group can help find bugs and even send in pull requests if there are pieces they want added. The beta signup thread is here at the moment: https://community.spark.io/t/where-is-the-source-code-for-th...

There's nothing stopping you from writing your own TCP/UDP listener server and having the Spark write to a port on that.
