Opinion: Is a split imminent? – Synadia demands NATS back from the CNCF


With Derek Collison's demand that NATS be separated from the CNCF again, he risks an ongoing legal dispute or even a fork like Terraform.

The organization, which is part of the Linux Foundation, argues in the dispute that Synadia relinquished all rights to NATS when it handed it over to the CNCF in 2018 and must now comply with the agreements. There is much to suggest that Derek Collison, the main maintainer, CEO and founder of NATS and Synadia, made a mistake with the donation to the CNCF and wants to limit the damage. In a non-legally formulated proposal submitted by CEO Collison on April 9, he goes into a little more detail: 97 percent of the contributions come from Synadia employees and the company has invested 30 million dollars.
