Ouch, fork that hurts. Unfortunately MCL "met
industry pressures" and is now roughly the size
of a small basketball team rather than the 100+
we once were. Most of those who launched and
developed kimberlite are now at Red Hat, hence
its inclusion *finally* into Red Hat's products.
We consider this a rejuvenation rather than a fork since at MCL we had bowed to proprietary
pressures and our kimberlite enhancements
languished. Kimberlite is a great HA core and
we are excited at having
the opportunity to continue its development.
Lots of new features, all still GPL, all available
on Red Hat's ftp.
