I could see the writing on the wall with this.

On that note, I'm already looking at migrating my codebase off of Spring. Just testing the waters with Quarkus, Helidon, Micronaut, Pekko, Vert.x, and plain Jakarta EE right now.

Are there any indications or just a feel?

Company where I work had huge risk audit.

The second highest risk is using USA based cloud with 66/100.

The first one was using Spring Boot everywhere 77/100. Till the end of 2025 we need to have migration path to something else with 2 PoCs done.

I’m completely out of the loop. What’s going on with Spring Boot?

One does not need VMware for SpringBoot so?

Not spring boot, but spring, is owned by VMware. Sure spring is under a free license but if upstream enshittifies, community forks would be required.

How do I reconcile this statement with VMWare holding the copyright which you will find unambiguously littered in the official Spring Boot repository?

Since you contend the contrary, who does in fact hold the copyright?
