Thanks for your feedback!

While our original intention is to provide a real open-source graph database project for the community, we also want to prevent cloud vendors from monetizing the project without contributing back to the community. Exactly like what's explained in this TechCrunch article: https://techcrunch.com/2018/09/07/commons-clause-stops-open-...

That being said, Common Clause seems to be the only license that can be used. Quote the article: "Academics, hobbyists or developers wishing to use a popular open-source project to power a component of their application can still do so. "

However, we will seriously consider the license issue. Please do let us know if you know any better licenses that can be used.

Much appreciated!
