Why do you think it's just another CI platform now? :)
Thanks for pointing out the errors, we'll fix that. We've been around for over a year with half a year of beta period before that.
The whole thing is really fast and stable: we chose Docker containers to run builds which ensures speed and compatibility across the whole team + contrary to some other CI/CD software we only deploy changed files which results in really fast deployments.
What languages/frameworks are you into?
I think that comparing Meat! to GitLab is more like comparing Star Wars to Star Trek (choose whichever you like best) than, say, choosing between the the Lannisters and House Targaryen :)
Cheers!

Thanks for expressing your concern, it's totally understandable and we appreciate that.
Now, to clear things up: we're a team of 10 and we spent an entire year on developing Meat!, day in, day out. To be honest, the license was our least concern, we just wanted to give you software that wouldn't be just another GitLab clone (hi there GitLab folks!) and we didn't devote the license the attention it required. Sorry about that, we're going to give it a closer look once we get some sleep this weekend.
Anyway, if there's enough response from the community for Open Source - then we'll do Meat! Open Source. We've never had any problems with that and we never will. Just let us know.
We're going live next week and you'll be able to evaluate the software for yourself. Your feedback will be most welcomed.
Cheers, Alex and the Team at Meat!
