Oh please, this again. As if someone does something for free, one cannot 
criticize, hold them accountable etc. Let's be honest, if ceph was not open 
source it would not be where it is today, and it would not have the market 
share it currently has.
Users choose a storage solution based on its availability in the future, 
because you are not easily switching to a different one. So you cannot blame 
users for asking what has been 'promised' in the past.
I would even advocate for some sort of addition to GPL(?) licenses where there 
is a commitment to warn users years upfront or guarantee support for a product 
and it is not possible to abruptly stop support and switch to a proprietary 
solution after enough market share has been acquired.

Nobody is questioning this.
