The problem is that Zed has understandably and transparently abandoned supporting GPUI as an open source endeavour except to the extent contributions align with its business mission.

I remember when that came out, but I'm not sure I understand the concern. They use GPUI, so therefore they MUST keep it working and supportable, even if updating it isn't their current priority. Or are you saying they have a closed source fork now?

Actually, this story is literally them changing their renderer on linux, so they are maintaining it.

Isn't that every single open source project that is tied to a commercial entity?

I don't know what the message means exactly, but I can't plan to build on GPUI with it out there, especially when crates that don't carry that caveat are suffering from being under-resourced.

		IMO, as long as Zed uses it, we are safe. If it doesn't, we aren't. I'm keeping it that simple.
