There was a long thread about Julia / Julia Computing here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/julia-users/1zIlXQYb... . Viral said in the first post that "We will respond [to questions] back with a detailed blog post." They answered a subset of concerns on the list, but to my knowledge such a blog post does not exist.

Other than issues I mentioned in that thread, my main ongoing concern is that it is unclear where the boundary between Julia the community project (which includes their non-profit fiscal sponsorship via Numfocus) and Julia Computing, the company. Who owns the Julia trademark? Who owns the julialang.org domain? Who, ultimately, controls the direction of the project?

Ultimately, I want Julia to last for a long time, and for it to remain free software. I get the impression that all the founders want the same thing, which is encouraging. But even more encouraging would be to see the community's governance structured in a way that enforces this.
