Kudos @exsilium and thank you for finding my rant and pointing us in the right direction.
Cloud9 is dead, long live PylonIDE!

@nickl- History is repeating itself. Cloud9 did start out as a GPL v3 project and was living in ajaxorg/cloud9@2d40112. With version 3, the core license was changed to non-OSS to align with their business goals and the old project with GPL code together with the issue tracker content was removed. A GPL version of Cloud 9 v2 lives on as Pylon - www.github.com/pylonide/pylon - I use and maintain it. Happy to have some PR contributions!
Apart from the v3 core that is not open source, there are many plugins that are MIT licensed and can be forked. Having said that - as this project space seems to have been abandoned by AWS - don't be surprised if all the content in it, including this issue tracker, disappears overnight.

If I remember correctly cloud 9 was bought out by Amazon https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9/. It is no longer open source so this project will never be updated.

The project was indeed bought up by Amazon, but there are commits from after the transition. Maybe it's just not under active development?

hmmmm...the announcement is not that helpfull ;-) hopefully they keep a open source version!

Well, from the looks of things, Amazon doesn't seem to have any plans for keeping this version updated. The AWS C9 is being updated all the time, but I really don't think at this point that development on this version will continue, unless another community starts building around it. Which is unlikely, since there are already some decent open-source alternatives in active development, like Theia and Code-Server to name two. Although, it's too bad really, since C9 runs great on my Raspberry Pi, and I can't seem to get any other similar programs to build/compile/run...

Has this project ever been open source? The applied license is not much for the spirit of "free as in beer" software.
I find it striking that they openly admit to the presence of the GPL, in section 1.5 but shirk their obligation to copyleft.
Lets fork this project out of sheer principle! Use that license as our manifesto and breach every last infraction mentioned before we rest.
