Frontier to go open source

As Seth noted, Frontier is being split off from Userland and released open source. I have a lot of history with Frontier, and this site runs in Conversant, which runs on top of Frontier — so it’s an interesting development to me.

I still haven’t seen mention of the licensing terms, and it’s not clear to me if they are now going to give it away, or just provide access to the source.

Regardless, it’s a platform I’m happy to move away from as fast as possible. I expect this will just turn out to be another twist in Frontier’s tumultuous history.
