I was hired by Ardan Labs last year to develop Caddy 2. Ardan is still the exclusive partner for business/enterprise support (which I recommend for companies using Caddy). I now work on Caddy full-time through support from apilayer (the new owner) and other sponsors. This should be a more stable and long-term arrangement that benefits everyone, especially the user base / community!
The last six months should give you some idea.
And no, I'd rather quit than make a mess of the project.
And what does this do for Caddy as an open source server? Will it fork into a confusing mess of features like nginx did?
Update: According to mholt's post above, the gist:
- happened 6 months ago
- everything is still Apache 2.0
