Well looks like Arduino has been acquired by Qualcomm. Any guesses how long before it becomes closed source?

Usually, 6 months to a year!
Although i like to remind myself there are examples of that being a good thing...not often though, MySQL database comes to mind back when it was acquired by Oracle (i think) and they made it much faster and still left it open source, for quite a while...no idea what is the current state of it though.
I am waiting for Paramount to acquire HBO, as that will be absolutely the end of free speech in USA.
