Slightly tangential, but is there any hope of seeing Polar return as a (maintained) open source system?

I absolutely love the concept of using a logic language for authorization, and I think Polar's aesthetic qualities make it significantly more approachable for most people (over Prolog/Datalog).

But even without the authorization problem, Polar is just... really nice looking. It would be awesome to be able to use it as its own language outright.



Yes. This is happening. Stay tuned.
