They could just as easily word the press release ETL be “… releasing the source code”. “Open Source” has a specific meaning. It’d be like saying “…is now free!

“Open Source” has a specific meaning. It’d be like saying “…is now free!” with “free” defined as some price I consider to round to zero. It’s clearly misrepresenting the word which has a specific meaning.
- orra 3y ago'[Old versions] will be open source' would, I think, also be a fair description. Right now it's source available proprietary freeware; in three and a half years it (specifically, the now-current version) will be open source. For this reason, I think the Business Source License (BSL) (with an Open Source Change License) is less nefarious than the Server Side Public License (SSPL).
