its just the apache 2 license with a restriction to not sell this project on one marketplace. Can still sell the code elsewhere. Its still totally open source, and honestly Confluence is not something I would loose sleep on. Jira has been a cash cow for a long time, and I have a beef with them anyway
No, it's not. Those restrictions are against the open source definition.
Edit: Lol, people with no clue donvoting what they don't want to hear. The open source definition is a fixed set of clauses. Read up on it.
It is still open source. However, it is not free software anymore.
You replied to a comment referencing the open source definition and it's clear you did never read it.
