Looks nice but it is missing clarity on the pricing page about if the premium features are also open source or not, or is this open core? https://worklenz.com/

It's licensed under the AGPL, they welcome pull requests and don't seem to require a CLA, so open core is not really possible.

  no no. the question is, pricing page says under pro - Everything in free plan - Resource management - Advanced project reporting - Track team members' progress - Reports exporting are these available in agpl self-hosted version or not?

    What I'm saying is that they will have to be as soon as they accept an external contribution. The code they accept will be licensed under the AGPL by the contributor. A hosted-only version including both the contribution and hosted-only features would be a derived work, and thus require source disclosure under the terms of the AGPL. (It is possible to keep stuff out of the "standard" distribution and only disclose when asked, but that seems like a whole lot of effort to maintain two identically licensed code bases.)

      I worked for a company that had a GPLed product and provided services around it. Then they got scared that a big company might steal the product and SAAS it. Then they changed to AGPL. Then they figured selling add ons and hosting could be good business. By necessity our plugins were AGPL. Our customers could have put our plugins on GitHub but no one ever did (and there were hundreds!!!)

        What the product ?

  Is it? Where are the sources?

    I'm not sure what to tell you other than to click on the submission link, which goes straight to the GitHub repository containing the source code.

      Weird, somehow I was on their website, and couldn't find a link to GitHub. I wonder if I followed another link from here and assumed it was the submitted one. Sorry and thanks.
