As someone who has worked at an open source company before I'd love to hear your thoughts on building a sustainable business around open source software. Most use cases I know are basically customization/consulting in enterprise settings build around a free base system.
From reading about the company it seems that you want to monetize on ease of use with the distro?
Do you have customers that specifically pick you because deeplearning4j is open or do you find that it's more of a nice to have or even don't care as long as it works type of situation?
I'd also love to hear some reasoning for picking Apache 2.0 (i.e. a non-copyleft one). I've talked to at least one FLOSS founder who would have picked a different license in retrospect but feel like mostly the license matters less than most people think.
