What parts of Mojo may not be open sourced?
Re: "Over time we expect to open-source core parts of Mojo, such as the standard library. ", can I have a sense of what will not be open sourced? Just a few examples, if you don't mind.
- Will compilation to certain hardware architectures be closed source(or a paid option). Will there be a license violation if we build open source compilations that are paid options in Modular for e.g.
- I'm guessing the Mojo compiler will be close sourced? Can it be used in a non Modular setting commercially? Will there be licensing fees?
(I'd like to bias this question to say that I'm excited about Mojo and can't wait to use it. Just wanted to understand the full picture 🙂 )

Can Mojo be used to write trusted applications (e.g. postgres extension)
Like PL/Rust(https://tcdi.github.io/plrust/trusted-untrusted.html), would Mojo be designed in a way that it can be be run without affecting the environment(e.g. disable file system operations, network calls etc). The main use case is creating an extension like PL/Rust. It may not be a feature now but just wondering if this is in the roadmap
