D. Richard Hipp has done a universal good for the world by releasing sqlite into the public domain and maintaining it for 25 years

That marketing is really the one thing that keeps me from considering this as a serious option.

To callback to an article a few days ago, it's a signal of dishonest intent [1], and why in the world would I use the alternative built by apparently dishonest people when sqlite is right there and has one of the best track records in the industry.

Besides, this is missing the best of SQLite, the ethical code:

> First of all, love the Lord God with your whole heart, your whole soul, and your whole strength

In comparison, this has no guiding moral backbone. Who knows what they could do.
