Well, it is a switch, but InterBase is not a closed source application.
It is under a Mozilla style Open Source compliant license.

I would like to see SSL for the RaQ2 after the patent expires. Right
now, it is a pain in the butt to do SSL on a RaQ2 since it does not
integrate with the web UI or normal web server.
I'd be tempted to back port the SSL stuff from the RaQ3, but that would
probably void my warrenty. :-(
