Having seen the number of #OpenSource projects that turned on their contributors once they attracted strong investors, I do start wondering about #HomeAssistant and its requirement for a #CLA 😕
I'm trusting the current team, but still, it leaves me a bit concerned.
(My own total contributions to the code is <100 LoC, so I've got no legs to stand on, but I'd hate to wake up to my home automation suddenly being open core or proprietary.)
