So for example, Gitlab CE is OK (its an OSI approved licensed) but Gitlab EE is not. The source for Gitlab EE is open (I can go read it) but it's not freely available. > > If desired I can setup a demo and/or help maintain the tools, this is my > day job and for those who care about these kind of things I am Atlassian > certified. > > Here is more info on their licensing for Open Source projects: > > https://www.atlassian.com/software/views/open-source-license-request > My understanding is that this is a binary-own download that, once installed, we can request a license to use. We won't have the source code at all and the license is not free. I don't think it's possible for us to use this software in Gentoo for this reason. -A > > br, > Mathy >
