Will any source to build new images remain available without subscription?

They write in the press release, that the sources remain under Apache 2 license, they just stop distributing prebuilt images for free.

Edit: As I see it's true.

Source code for OCI images: https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami

Charts: https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/main/bitnami

If you look at the folders there, you'll see that all of the older Dockerfiles have been removed, even for versions of software that are not EOL.

For example:

PostgreSQL 13 (gone): https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/post...

PostgreSQL 14 (gone): https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/post...

PostgreSQL 15 (gone): https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/post...

PostgreSQL 16 (gone): https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/post...

PostgreSQL 17 (present): https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/post...

> The source code for containers and Helm charts remains available on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 license.

Ofc they're all still in the Git history: https://github.com/bitnami/containers/commit/7651d48119a1f3f... but they must have a very interesting interpretation of what available means then.
