I'm actually not sure if the 2 cases you cited actually violate the OSI's Open Source Definition: https://opensource.org/docs/osd

Anyone care to clarify? I know that open source != free software, and you can read about that on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source#Open_source_as_a_t...




IIRC the OSI has outright stated that the Elastic License ain't open source. Not sure about that first one, though.
