| We are excited to announce that we have agreed to acquire Tabular, Inc, a data management company founded by Ryan Blue, Daniel Weeks, and Jason Reid. This acquisition brings the original creators of Apache Iceberg™ and those of Linux Foundation Delta Lake, the two leading open source lakehouse formats, together.

DataBricks has bought out Tabular which gives them more influence over Iceberg's future path.

Any guess on what the strategy will be here? Will they have more or less incentive to help the iceberg community?
