Hi Julian, I don't think this is a productive narrative to be pushing. Many projects currently rely critically on COIN-OR software, and will continue to do so

Hi Julian, I don't think this is a productive narrative to be pushing. Many projects currently rely critically on COIN-OR software, and will continue to do so simply because inertia is often what drives project dependency management. Open source funding is not a zero-sum game, and COIN-OR getting financial support will only strengthen the ecosystem of open-source solvers.
