Redis Labs relicensed some AGPL software to the Commons Clause (in their case, Apache + Commons Clause; so you can’t really call it Apache any longer). I’ll have more to say on this topic soon, but in the meantime you might enjoy reading Open-source licensing war: Commons Clause . This was the most balanced article I read about this move and the kerfuffle it has caused.

Reviewing is under way for Percona Live Europe 2018 talks: the review of the tutorials is complete. We can expect to see a schedule by mid-September, so hang in there—I’ve received a lot of messages asking if talks are going to be approved or not.
