They are not pretending it's an OSS license. The article states:
> “Just don’t call it Open Source.” Point taken. Fair Source is our new term.
- vetrom 2y ago> Sentry has never been GPL. That was my mistake, my brain remembering wrong. https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/blob/9.1.2/LICENSE https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/blob/9.1.2/LICENSE was its last open source license, MITish, right? As for calling it "*source" and saying "oh we're not pretending its open source"? This is a point of opinion, but I think that's disingenuous marketing, at best.
