Great summary! Might have to check it out. Plus, even if they don't want to grow, they could always partner with a company that handles the sales, support, etc while cutting them a slice of licenses. Even feature creep could be handled with a fork that the company maintains with core engineers being consultants for occasional hard problem.
Great DB, horrible license.
Love the use of Prolog, hate the mirror-world EULA. If they haven't updated the license from the last time I looked, it's a non-starter for any reasonably-sized commercial entity with contract controls; there's no way in hell it would pass review with legal, which is odd for a company that's looking to make money off its product.
Could you elaborate on that? What don't you like about the EULA?
It's actually not Prolog but Datalog. Prologs non turing complete, but with logic consistent, little query language brother ^^.
