[ale] [OT] Java License change

[Simba]

Curious, what app(s) do you build? I'm wondering if they're for sale or
just internal use?

I recently reviewed an application as a possible replacement for
Helpdesk ticketing and ended up rejecting it because it's Java based..
and I recently stopped paying for PHPStorm in favor of Sublime Text
because PHPStorm is slow as hell (because it's Java based).

Just food for thought, if your app is for sale.
