[Clamav-users] Sourcefire's acquisition of ClamAV -- Will ClamAV become close source ?

[Sergei Lavrov]

Does this mean ClamAV will become close source
sometime in the future ?

I believe the correct answer is IT DEPENDS.

This is up to the new company to decide.  No one would be willing to
say "Till the end of time... will remain open source." if that is what
you are looking for.

Closed source would mean that many distributions would have to LEAVE
the ClamAV world in droves.  Or take on the choice of managing the
distribution differently; much like the NVIDIA project for the video
cards.  Which in my opinion leaves a SOUR taste in many peoples mouths.

Read through the mailing list archives for this month, there's a 
super-long thread on this subject in there.
