Amazon (AWS) is setting up a BSD-licensed fork, but has not yet decided on 
the final name:
https://github.com/placeholderkv/placeholderkv

We will see whether that or redict will get the most attention. Cloud 
companies like Amazon will probably prefer BSD, whereas contributors worried 
about another "Redis, Inc." coming up and taking their forked code 
proprietary too will most likely prefer the LGPL fork (redict) (unless they 
are unhappy about the use of version 3.0 only of the LGPL by that fork).
