So... no?
(I say that, but "Datomic binaries" presumably refers to compiled JVM class files; and JVM bytecode is notoriously easy to decompile back to legible source code, with almost all identifiers intact. Would Apache-licensing a binary, imply that you have the right to decompile it, publish an Apache-licensed source-code repo of said decompilation, and then run your own FOSS project off of that?)
