- commercial license to remove branding
Source-available, not OSI: a branding-retention clause caps free branding removal at 50 end-users per 30 days, above which an enterprise license or written permission is required. That charges for a class of use and fails the OSS Definition, though it is widely marketed as open source. Score corrected from 3 to 2 on 2026-07-30. The software ladder has rungs at 1, 2, 4 and 5 and none at 3, so 3/source_available was not a pair any rule could produce; the ladder scores "you can read it and not run it freely" at 2.
