That concern is a valid one, but consider this: the right to fork is inherent to truly FOSS (Free Open Source Software). As such, PDI in the worst case gets a name change. The software that is Free now, will always remain Free.

I also would to like to point out that Pentaho has a history of *opening* up software, not closing it down. Since we’re doing very well with that strategy, I don’t see us changing it very soon.
